Many people fantasize about being the opposite gender, many get excited about the possibilities sexually, many of us wonder what it would be like to have the opposite gender's strengths/assets. All normal, doesn't have to mean anything other than that we are all alive curious human beings.

I think the reason most of us don't know it is normal is because there isn't yet open discussion in our world about such matters. So it is still considered a taboo, even though there is nothing wrong with it.

I also think that some human beings have an investment in policing the world, they want everything and everyone to be a particular way, for whatever reason. Anything that is considered by them to be on the edge, transgressing boundaries, is then thought to be negative and in need of treatment.

I wonder how much our cultural training and nurture influences how we see gender. I wonder what the world would be like if more people let each other be who they truly are, which includes plenty of questioning and wondering time, maybe even through our entire lives.
