Which "layer" coaxes YOU most today to undo the above coaxing? and straight.
- Self - sense of self
- Partner - S.O. or mate
- Friends - your buddies, clique. Which friends do you choose? those who are very M or F or who are very mixed and open?
- Family - your mom, dad, and sibs
- Neighborhood - just the "feeling" of those around you "on the street"
- Work - are you "caught" in a gendered job or in a anti-gender role at work
- School - do your teachers "get" you to be M F or straight - or to let it go
- City - does Los Angeles 'liberate' you or trap you?
- some experience - prison, army, the nunnery, parenting, abuse, love - does it coax u?
- CA - does the state "do" something to you to make you M or F or straight or gay
- USA - how does the federal government impose gender and straightness upon you
Partner, friends, family and work seem to be the ones which force me most into a model of a gender. the other layers seem to allow me to identify myself how I wish to be identifed as percieved from my point of view
