interesting, as I was researching as I often do, I came across this .. I was thinking .. hmm what a novel classification for those who do not want/ do not fit into the normal binary gender class. it is both descriptive and non-derogatory (in my opinion),plus its kind of fancy
.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allele
"The word "allele" is a short form of
allelomorph ("other form", a word coined by William Bateson[3]), which was used in the early days of genetics to describe variant forms of a gene detected as different phenotypes. It derives from the Greek prefix ἀλλήλ, allel, meaning
"reciprocal" or "each other", which itself is related to the Greek adjective ἄλλος (allos; cognate with Latin "alius"), meaning "other"."
what do you think?

i grew up with a boy. he was my dear friend and we played together like two girls. i didn’t know he was different. as i got older, though, and while other boys got more physical, he continued to be my good girlfriend. later, we both learned about what he was. he was a girl all wrapped up in a boy wrapper. today, he’s taking hormones and wants one day to have a special surgery. he knows i’ll always love him no matter what and that whatever it takes for him to feel aligned with his true nature, i want that for him as well. when we were little i never thought about what label suited him, i never thought about labels at all, or names or gender identity. i think the reason i mention it is because there are many on this forum who remind me of her. i think you are a sweet person. i want you to have a name. do you have a name i can call you.
