Girl or boy?

"Is that a girl or a boy?" I hear them whisper as they look at me.
I have long hair but is that all they see?
There other parts to be seen, not just dark hair that reaches my shoulders.

I may not know who I am,
But that does not mean you do.
I know I'm not a girl and that does not mean I'm a boy.
I am both and neither. 

He?
She?
No, I am me.
Here,
And queer.

Family.

What exactly is a family? A father, a mother, and children? Or are the children simply the thing that keeps the mother and father together? Do the children have to be the offspring of the mother and father and they have to be a male and a female? What is family?
Can family be a couple or group of people, all of whom love each other and raise children, strangers, and pets together?

I believe a family is a couple or group that loves each other and will accept each other in spite of the habits they find annoying in each other. Whether male, female, or intersex they love one another. They could raise children whether adopted or from one or both of the parents. Pets can be those children and be those that the parents look towards for the one to love and give their guidance towards.
