Picture one: Around age seven, when I began realizing I was genderless.
Picture two: Around age eleven, when I began being molested by a man with an axe to grind against all women.
Being genderless did not protect me from the misogynistic gender socialization that my molester shoved into my brain as hard as he possibly could, when I was supposed to be a scapegoat for all the women who rejected him.
I wish it had.
It didn’t.
No protection at all.
None.
Zero.
Instead, twenty years later, I still have to pick pieces of his distorted worldview out of my still thoroughly genderless mind. This did more damage to me than being touched inappropriately ever did.
