    Sometimes transgendered people refer to themselves as the third gender. Neither one nor the other ... but a little bit of both.

    My name is not Mike!

    I live with my parents, but we're a farm family, so that's expected. This way I can help my father with his career. I wouldn't want it any other way.

    I'm older than 18, but I'm still a member of "Generation Y". I don't get along with people my age, though. I was in business while I was a sophomore in High School, and have never looked back. I'm a single male, and have never really been interested in dating. I'm content with myself the way that I am.

    If I tell you anything more, this will sound like a dating profile!

    I have my hands full with a 5 month old so I will have to pass , your story struck a cord because I could see the same thing happening to me if we tried for a second . Still a blessing and very happy for you ! Don't forget to buy two of everything !

    I said the same thing when my wife told me that she wanted another kid. My wifes grandmother is a twin and i told her it would be our luck that we would have the twins in the family. After we found out i should have bought lottery tickets with how lucky or unlucky we got. I recently asked since we are done having kids when was she going to have it all taken care of. I have never seen a more direct look at me and did not even have to say anything to relize that i was the one that was going to get "taken care of".
