I've had my friend try and talk me into meditation. I don't know if I could stop and focus on one thing like that, because if I'm not doing one thing my mind tends to wander and run off with something else. I just can't get my thoughts to rest sometimes, and I usually end up feeling like I should be doing something "productive" (because, you know, things like showering and sleeping are a waste of time I could otherwise be spending on writing... *eyeroll*)
Where trans and cis people identify as male or female, genderqueer is sort of a catch-all for people who identify somewhere outside of the binary. For example, people who feel they are both (bi- or pangender), neither (genderless), or whose identification experiences shifts or changes (genderfluid).
For me it's somewhat the second or third. I feel sometimes like I am an abstract. Sometimes it's really all about the context of the situation/company I'm in. I don't desire to be male (though in RP and writing I always feel more comfortable with a male character), though I don't generally feel female either (unless I'm talking about guys with other females, then I tend to feel a bit girly).
(more pending on your reply, but I'm in class, so...anyway)
