It was one thing that I was struck when I went to the Trans Support groups in NYC that they were anything but binary.

Even today I'm asked if I will change my gender on my ID and parts of me really doesn't just to mess with people and see how much they pay attention. Few do interestingly enough. They see my face with a beard and say "Sir", "Mr.", etc. As humans we base our "containers" on what we see and not what is necessarily "is".

Oh, yeah! Containment!
