Heh. I didn't look at your profile before commenting (I was reading my DW 'network' page), so this is an entertaining surprise. We've almost certainly passed each other in a hallway at some point, at least, and I do know your mom (though not as well as most of my other friends who know her). I was music director of 3LF for a while (er ... 1990s, more or less?) -- Maugorn has that job now. If you're on FB, does this Darkover photo help?
I'm glad you like that bio ... which, wow, I'm almost twenty years behind on updating. (I guess I should just write something new from scratch and include a link to the old one, instead of screwing that one up, huh?)
I was talking to a friend in Ontario who doesn't identify as T* or GQ but does consider herself nonstandard genderwise ("a conscientious objector to the whole idea of gender", but not exactly 'agender' either, as I understand it), and I mentioned this entry and she agreed that behind your brief, concise observation, there's a whole lot of interesting insight to unpack, both for people it applies to and for everyone else interested in how gender works. And that it's personally useful to her.
