    Third category I've selected for this post. Something I've tried to figure out, which maybe doesn't need me thinking about it. But some weirdness.

    Is it about sex? Is it something that needs advice? Is it words? Something like that.

    Anyhow, when I was a messenger I tried to get to know all the bike messengers a bit better. I knew a few from here and there and the car messengers can't relate well to someone working on foot. Made some friends, peoplewatched and developed a crush or two.

    Back in highschool when I was freaking out about what other people saw, one of those things was inviting friends over because I thought that having anyone over might establish my highschool sexual preference identity. Weird kid.

    I've identified as straight since I've figured out it didn't matter so much.

    But when I was a messenger I ran into a bike messenger a lot. This person was cute and nice and played music and happens to be neither entirely male nor female in public. How do I relate to this person?

    As a person is the obvious short answer.

    But what about pronouns? he she it they.

    None of that matters so much as hanging around rad people, to tell the truth.
