Gender is like a rubix cube that keeps disorganizing itself anytime you get close to solving it. You know you could take the stickers off and "solve" it that way, but you'd always know it wasn't quite correct.

Gender is like space - it's big, mind-bogglingly big, without the 'big'. We're always discovering new things about it, and disproving old theories. There's a Goldilocks Zone where you feel comfortable, but that doesn't mean other people feel the exact same. Sometimes you have a desire to explore it and test the limits, sometimes you want to settle down someplace nice.

Gender is like playing Where's Waldo. Except, instead of a picture of Waldo, you're given an inkblot representation of Waldo. And the likely hood of finding someone who has even heard of Waldo- let alone know- is slim to none.

Gender is like the Mona Lisa. It's an unavoidable motif in western culture, but nobody cared about it until it was removed from the museum. Marcel Duchamp drew a mustache on it.

Gender is like a messy room filled with tons of individual items, and the more you try to categorize and sort the items, the more confused and lost you are.

Gender is like the ocean. It is deep and terrifying, what it appears may not be what lurks under the surface. But it is precious and invaluable to all, and when you find it, it holds an incomparable beauty.

Gender is like a flower, while some may be similar no two are quite the same. And all of them are absolutely beautiful.

Gender is like the sky. Beautiful, stunning, colourful. But you can not imagine what you‘ll find behind all that.
