The Eternal Question
What is a man?What is a woman?
What is a boy?
What is a girl?
Why are some of us born to play with cars, trucks, and army men?
Why are some of born to play with dolls & cute little teddy bears?
Why are some of us made as neither boy nor girl?
Why do others react so violently toward us who are different?
Why do people want to destroy what they don't understand?
Why don't people try to understand us that are different?
Why are we what we are?

This was originally written back in 2001 and stemmed from the deep emotions I felt related to being transgendered.
