Continuing on our brief discussion into Gender Flux and the science of "Chaos" Pat commented:
It was the chaos that resulted from mutating genes that propelled evolution through the ages. The theory is valid. Chaos will keep people engaged and will allow what may not be considered status quo today to become acceptable and become status quo in the future.
You and the others you mentions on the edge of the knife cutting a path forward.
Good observation and keep up the good work.

Thanks Pat, as I said, somehow I was "born to chaos" and gender just has always seemed to be a huge part-because of the basic insecurity it causes in human nature.
Changing the discussion further are the believers that the inherent weakening of the male "Y" chromosome will happen over the evolution of the human race (no time soon) leading to a genderless race. Or those who believe in all the genetically or chemically altered food is altering the genders too.
I fairly sure at my age, I won't see much of all of that happen if it does, but I do know the younger generation approaches the aspect of gender differently than mine does. To the point of being brain washed by narrow minded- scared parents.
The problem I have is stereotyping who will accept my transgender status. For example, I was caught by surprise by "gender slur bitch" when I would expect it from a group of rednecks.
Such is the beauty of chaos as a science? It's the inner beauty that counts.

Gender Flux
As I was waiting for the surgeon to work his magic on Liz's shoulder, I devoured a couple copies of a magazine called Fast Company.
In particular, an article about Generation Flux. It's less a demographic designation than a psychographic one: What defines GenFlux is a mind-set that embraces instability, that tolerates—and even enjoys—recalibrating careers, business models, and assumptions. Not everyone will join Generation Flux, but to be successful, businesses and individuals will have to work at it. This is no simple task. The vast bulk of our institutions—educational, corporate, political—are not built for flux.
I thought quickly-the world is definitely not ready for gender flux - or is it? I was also impressed with the fact there is a mathematical discipline called "chaos theory" for people like me who unknowingly embraced a form of chaos my entire life.
Taken on a much broader scale, the future is a very scary place for most. And, as transgender women or men (and cross dressers who take on the appearance of their non birth gender) it's significant we are beginning to take our rightful place in all of these changes. Plus, as the article said, the successful people and institutions in the future will accept "flux." It's already happening now with our youth and their approach to gender.
Through chaos comes change and for all of us working at Gender Flux Ground Zero. ( Pat, Mandy, Stana, Janie, Jen and so many others.) We all know it is not for the faint hearted but we have a huge chance to make a positive change.
The world needs to experience gender flux as well as all the changes society is going through. Welcome to our world!
