I feel exactly the same. Neutral seems to suit me best.

Well, Toretorden (cute rat, by the way), I've never had my cells karyotyped to identify what chromosomes they contain, nor have most people, so presumably you are inferring the presence of a Y chromosome from external genitalia, ignoring the possibility of androgen insensitivity or other rare, but existent, chromosome structures:

Quote:

From Wikipedia: In mammals, the Y chromosome contains a gene, SRY, which triggers embryonic development as a male. There are exceptions in which SRY is damaged (leading to an XY female), or copied to the X (leading to an XX male). For related phenomena see Androgen insensitivity syndrome and Intersex.

Hi NumberNineDream,
Your description of feeling gender "neutral" is a good one. Someone earlier in the thread used the word "asexual," which is different than how I feel. When I see people who are stereotypically "male" or "female" in appearance, I simply don't have a feeling of commonality with either one. I don't self-identify as male or female. I don't know what it would feel like to "feel female" or "feel male." That way of describing feelings just doesn't mesh with how I feel about myself.

I'm aware of the statistical sex outliers but since I can't check, I'll let people decide wether or not they think they have it ;)

I'm male and i fit nicely into the 20-24 category. I'll do it now because I can only be in there for another 4 weeks!

Haha how did you get the impression I was older?

Was quite the lax 20th though.

I used to work with an old Bosnian guy named Zarko.
Just the other night, I had a dream that I was working at a sheet metal fabrication factory with him, and that he called me Sparko, because I was a welder.

I dunno why I just said that, but just to let you know... When I see your name "Zarko", I think of a 50 year old short guy who's balding, barely speaks English, and loves to crack dirty jokes.

I miss that guy.
:(

@Zarko: Yeah, I never asked but is your name Žarko? If so, any affiliation to the Balkans?

Nope, straight up Zarko. Eastern Europe descent, Ukraine in particular.

Apparently its a more popular first name.
