Memoir (3/13)
Whether we are aware of it or not, each of us is our own unique version of a man or woman (or some combination of both, or even, neither). We each define our personal sex and gender in our own way, yet there are often a variety of external factors that can influence how we identify ourselves. For example, societal norms often play a large part in constructing the, usually traditional, parameters of our sex and gender identity. Sometimes we stay within these parameters, sometimes we do not. But to what degree have you conformed to, or rejected, the expectations of your sex? How has your version of masculinity or femininity evolved over the years? And how would you define your sex and gender identity at this particular point in your life?
In a concise memoir, explore the evolution of your own sex and gender persona.*
*Obviously, sex and gender identity can be highly personal. Therefore, you should share only what are comfortable with me, the reader, knowing about you.
