The [info]altfriday5 is keen!

South Park
From the [info]altfriday5:

1. What gender do you consider yourself?
Manly

2. Is this the gender you were assigned at birth?
I'm assuming, but I can't remember back that far. And you hear these stories of people who were assigned a different gender at birth than what they actually are, so you just never know, do you?

3. Do you like being your current gender? Why or why not?
Whenever I see a snowbank, everybody knows I was there. The grunting is pretty nice, too. And the need for speed. Yeah, being manly is SO for me.

4. If you could change one thing about how society perceives/constructs your gender, what would it be? (don't go nuts here, I know the response to this could make for several doctoral theses)
I'm a guy. I already get the long end of the stick, here. I don't want to change a thing. Society treats men well.

5. Everyone gets their ideas of what it means to be "a man" or "a woman" (or "a boi" or whatever) from somewhere (parents, movies, magazines, books). What was the single biggest influence on your gender identity?
Norm Abrams. Facial hair, flannel, and power tools. He talks funny, but he can do and make anything, and in half an hour.
It bears mentioning that I have neither facial hair nor flannel, but I do love me some power tools. I'm going to take on a drill press as a concubine as soon as I work out the legalities.
