The above is my fav line. In contrast & peculiar thing to me is that gender in society is binary black & white interpretation. Therefore, we feel what we show on the outside must match blanket expectation.
I may be nitpicking here, but it's possible to explain color to the blind people who didn't have the condition at birth. I'm not a musician, but from what I've read, even after becoming totally deaf, Beethoven still knew what his music sounded like due to audiation.
My point is people may find a way to understand through means you may not expect. While the concept of having a gender identity that is non-congruent with the body's sex may be bizarre to most people, perhaps people would be more receptive to scientific evidence rather than an abstract concept?
