The Art of Blogging Using Google Image Search

Things come to mind that make me want to blog. Curiosities - things that hit close to home - musings....

Entertainment.

I'll ponder over my keyboard about the topic(s) I want to cover. If I get stuck - I do a google image search.

This is like the rabbit hole for me.

Depending on your security settings - simple words can bring up the most interesting pics.

This was found during a lesbian wonder woman search:

"healthy multiplicity"

Some people who experience themselves as being two completely different people in one body—not just in the sense that they sometimes feel masculine and sometimes feel feminine—also use the term "bigender" to describe themselves in the event that the two people are of different genders, one male-identified and one female-identified. In this situation, at times when the person who is of the opposite gender to the body sex is dominant, they may experience similar feelings to a transsexual.

This phenomenon is sometimes seen as a kind of healthy multiplicity, that is to say, where a person has experiences similar to those described in dissociative identity disorder (also known as multiple personality disorder), but is able to come to terms with it, usually with the two people being aware of each other and cooperative, and does not wish to be seen as having an illness.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bigender (bi+gender) is a tendency to move between masculine and feminine gender-typed behaviour depending on context, expressing a distinctly "en femme" persona and a distinctly "en homme" persona, feminine and masculine respectively. It is a subset of transgender. It is recognized by the APA as a subset of the transgendered group.[1] A 1999 survey conducted by the San Francisco Department of Public Health observed that, among the transgendered community, less than 3% of genetic males and less than 8% of genetic females identified as bigender.

While an androgynous person retains the same gender-typed behaviour across situations, the bigendered person consciously or unconsciously changes their gender-role behaviour from primarily masculine to primarily feminine, or vice versa.

Bigender and sexual orientation
It might seem that a bigender identity must go with a bisexual identity but gender identity and sexual orientation are independent. It is possible to be bigender and not bisexual, or bisexual but not bigender.

For some bigenders, labels like gay, lesbian or bisexual can seem less relevant or satisfactory due to their focus on physiological sex. Some might prefer terms that refer to gender (see Gynephilia and androphilia) while others might prefer to not specify a sexual orientation at all.

Since bigender is a gender-related term, not an erotic one, a bigender can of course be asexual.

Bigender in popular culture
While performers such as David Bowie and Boy George are known for combining masculine and feminine aspects, performers who switch between a primarily masculine or feminine image, such as Eddie Izzard and Annie Lennox, better fit the bigender label. Crossdressing is not always related to gender identity, however.

JaDeD is FaDiN FaSt

At what point have we shut ourselves off from our needs? We need to love and be loved. Why is it bad to need? Some of my closest beings are beginning to give themselves permission to NEED.

Nothing wrong w/ that!

I had my girlfriend apologize pre-emptively if she came across needy tonite. (I will address that she is now being addressed as my girlfriend - at a later.....address - sorry I had to run w/ that)

When did begin to feed that negative bullshit to ourselves? What happened that made us so Jaded.

Was it age 24?

Was it our first big breakup?

Was it because we became lazy?

It is up to us to kick the habit.

This close being of mine - she's not jaded - she's beautiful and open and willing - she's just using the word JADED to keep her defenses up.

How do you know how you feel if you stay numb?

Wake up gurl - go get HIM!!!
