So many people go through life, and they never deal with their own issues, no matter what the issues are – ours happen to be gender identity. But, how many people go through life and just waste an entire life ’cause they’d never deal with themselves to be who they are. – Caitlyn Jenner
I find the question of whether gender differences are biologically determined or socially constructed to be deeply disturbing. – Carol Gilligan

I’ve been surprised at the number of people who were really angry that I tried to convey gender neutrality by using a gendered pronoun. – Ann Leckie
If you think about the way the hearings were structured, the hearings were really about Thomas’ race and my gender. – Anita Hill
I say, ‘I’m bi, my love knows no gender,’ and the straight community says, ‘Oh right, that’s just a cover-up – you’re gay!’ And the gay community says, ‘Yeah right, that’s just a cover-up – you’re gay.’ They both want to push me gay. – Andy Dick
