Which brings up an interesting point, gengwall, and it’s the old nature/nurture debate.

Sometimes I’m passive, sometimes I’m aggressive, and it depends upon the situation. I can be cold and I can be warm; I can refuse to bend and I can allow my arm to be twisted. Per my personality (not my gender) I can have various tendencies, and per my gender I may fit into some (but not all) generalities.

The problem comes when people try to force all men to be this and all women to be that; that is truly a case of erasing differences!

Jesus cried, turned tables, mocked, laughed, was sometimes tender and sometimes harsh, etc. In other words, he was human. Does that make him or anyone else androgynous? No. Androngyny is only when someone tries to physically blur the line. Male and female are physical terms. Yes there are generalities, tendencies, and averages, but those are not what make us male and female.
