Is being a nice person with no wrinkles ultimately where this curse takes us? Or is there something else we can do with all the masculine and feminine crafts we learned along the way?
I realised a long time ago on here, that my reactions to PM and to the other things that we all take, seems to be similar but somewhat different to most others, both in a physical and mental sense, so my take on this question may not be typical either!
I've said before, that I think I started pretty close to being exactly in the middle between male and female and all my life I've oscillated from one side to the other, and now, under the influence of PM, I've settled down as 'either' or 'neither', depending on your POV.From that starting point, I think that for every one of us 'inbetweenies', maybe once we start on the phyto-hormones there is a roller coaster ride of ups and downs in all of the mental aspects which does eventually level out. At that point, with a lot of the inbuilt stresses that we learned to cope with through life now gone, we can truly be ourselves and at that point we will naturally use the skills/crafts that we have, in a way that suits the real person. If that means a skill at using your hands to build models gets translated into sewing, or knitting
so what? What matters is being happy.
