The Mobius Strip

I've read over and over people describing gender as a spectrum. I've even used it myself. But since then, I've come to the idea that gender is more a Mobius Strip with male on one side and female on the other where any point on the strip has both and any direction leads to the other. To show this I use a demonstration.

Take a strip of paper, say a half-inch wide and 8-9 inches long. Write male on one side and female on the other side. In the middle on each side draw a line and 50%. On each end write 99% on each side (since no sex is 100% except a few rare girls) and 1% on both sides of the other end. Then twist the strip and connect the ends where the 1% on one side overlaps the 99% on the other. That's my idea of the Mobius strip of gender. It's the continuous spectrum and show anywhere you are you're both male and female.

If you follow the strip from one 99%/1% side around through the 50%/50% point, you'll end up at the other 99%/1% side. It's an endless, continuous spectrum. We're somewhere on the strip, and free and fluid to move any direction we are and want to be. We're fluid in our journey on the gender spectrum.
