I believe in love, all the way through. And while I live will help every man, woman, and the betweenities to win, obtain, intensify, deepen, purify, strengthen and keep it, and I will help all others to do the same. There! That’s me! I mean it!

As someone who has been... Pondering... My gender for a while, I vote we bring back the term betweenities. Unless it has some horrible history I'm not familiar with.
