Thanks all for your feedback and thoughts, they are so interesting!

Liara, I guess we use labels for the sake of efficiency. Giving things a name makes it easier to talk about it. If I say "male energy" you'll all know what I mean, that's easier than to explain for ten minutes "you know, this sharp, edgy kind of feeling..."

I've been paying attention to this male/female energy thing in the last days, and I think that I can feel it in people, but I never called it feminine and masculine. I can see men with strong "feminine" energy and women with loads of "masculine" energy, and everybody's a mix anyway, so this doesn't make much sense for me.

To be honest, I find it sexist and don't see the point. It's just stereotypes. We should invent more gender neutral names!

Thanks for taking the time and giving me some feedback Mags I get what you're saying. Your idea of consciously shifting is very interesting too!

Maybe it's just that I think I must be a guy to feel the way I do. The more people tell me that I have male energy, the more I'm accepting that I can be a real woman and feel the way I do, that in fact my physical gender is not relevant.

This reading with Ben was my first experience with psychics. I'm a total noob when it comes to spirits and paranormal phenomenons. I don't know much about it, but I find it very interesting.

Being possessed by a guy, that would be a lot of fun! I hope it's the case

Yes, that's true. I love it, that's why I want to be a ghostwriter. I do play being someone else, real persons or people who exist only in my imagination, of both genders. But there's a huge difference: when I play being them, I consciously choose to, and I'm free to stop at any time. It's just a game. Even when I'm crying because of something happening to them purely in my head (which happens), I know perfectly well that it's not really me.

But with this thing it's different, I can't choose anything, it just happens to me. And in these moments I'm really convinced that it IS me, that I am really a guy. That's not the same!

But yeah, you gave me a great idea, you all. I'm letting go of my resistance. When it happens to me next time, I'll just say "oh well, let's switch and enjoy being a guy for a change!"
