Maybe souls are not gendered. Who knows. Nobody ever saw one. :-)

But human beings, and their personalities, ARE gendered; so this is something we have to acknowledge and integrate.

Gender is among what make us, US. If I were born a woman, I wouldn't be the same person, of course.

Denying gender's importance is like denying death: it doesn't make it go away, and one day everybody has to face it. ;-)
