Metasynthie posted this awhile back in the strap-on.org trans forum:
"Here's a little mind-scenario: you're in your apartment one day when you notice a little light switch behind a bookcase. You discover that if the light switch is up, you're considered male, your body is what everyone considers within the statistical norm of a male body, and everyone treats you like that's always been the case, your whole life is permeated with that. If it's down, you're considered female, same as above, etc. When you find it, the switch is in the position that corresponds to how you were assigned at birth. What do you do:
1) leave the switch the way you found it, maybe tape it down, move the bookcase back
2) flop the switch to the other position and tape it down, move the bookcase back
3) that switch is great -- you use it all the time and decide from day to day what position you want it to be in, what your mood's like, what bar you're going out to, etc.
4) you would experiment with the switch as above, but when you think about it, you would probably get tired of that after figuring out what the difference is, and eventually you think you'd just leave it flipped, as in #2
5) see if you can get the switch to hover right in the middle and stay there, and what happens if you do that
6) smash the switch with a sledgehammer
7) condemn the switch as an abomination and try to get legislation passed forbidding anyone from using the switch."
My answer is some combination of 3, 4, & 5. Obviously. If you've got an answer, post it in my forum or my guestbook. Please. So I don't feel like an idiot for making them in the first place.
