    "I want to live in a world 
    where the words male and female are flexible and subjective, even redundant. 
    A world of perpetual transformation, where sexuality and gender become obsolete...
    I want to live in a world where I am free to be whoever I want to be, 
    whenever I want to be, male, female, other or neither."
