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!
