gendering gerunds

Write a list of gerunds (action words in process...ending in ing) that have to do with how you feel about the genders you have, want, bump up against, get mistaken for....etc. (See comments for one example...) and then post your own.
This exercise was developed by Zachari and Alexis as part of the Engendering Peace curriculum at New Horizons Alternative School.

It is better to write!

Auntie

So..I have yet to be convinced that every poem is not a love letter. Forgive me. This love letter thing is going to last a while longer. Post a praise poem to some for-real-for-real or for play-play-real aunt of yours.

Love Letters to Strangers

So survey says...we move. We be in airports, gas station rest stops, subway transfers, bus terminals, but also be still in the space of a gaze, in a staring match with our shoes, on a treadmill of world creation hope hustle. This week(end) write a love letter to stranger, and give it to them (or not).

p.s. we are sufficiently strange so feel free to post to us!
