So many ways to convey one's intentions - word choices, actions, intonations - what do I project? Others have their own perceptions, leading to unfortunate misconceptions as, on me, they too, project. Human communication is so hard. What to take to heart, what to discard? Who knows? What do you think it would mean, do you think it is obscene, as I take off my clothes? The only reason you see me in my skin is that I am gladly trading in my humanity. No more voice box, brain case, opposable thumbs - I'm joining with my animal chums. Goodbye, insanity!
