Androgyny and hormones...a whole set of experiences that I'm not sure that anyone but an androgyne can truly understand.
It's "that" time of month (sorry if that's too much information - promise I'll stop right there!) and my hormones have been going bonkers. Being anatomically female, I do get the fun of once-a-month hormones gone haywire. But with the male element thrown into the mix, it turns it into something completely different than I think it probably is for someone who is fully female.
I get often get depressed at my time of month. But I don't get weepy, I don't get the urge to watch soppy movies or listen to love songs or anything like that. No, I become hateful and critical of everything. I'd rather be by myself and brood until I get the chance to beat the crap out of something. (Thank goodness for games like Second Life where I can do that without hurting anyone!) It feels more like an overdose of testosterone than a female hormone.
I know, some women become Queen "B" when Aunt Flo's on her way. But do they get the urge to blow stuff up or beat things to a pulp? I really don't know, I don't think I've ever had a "normal" case of PMS.
Anyone who would like to weigh in and tell me what non-androgyne women experience, I'd love to hear it in a comment.
