LOL - Shari - almost spilled my coffee with this one! Ok your a cracker shot with the innuendos - well aimed and fired my friend.
Thanks for sharing, and the smiles.

Thanks, Maureen. Don't know where all this sarcasm comes from.
Comment from IndianaIrish
That sure is the truth, Shari! I love your word "genderation" and it's so you and so perfect. I often wonder why some forms need to know gender. I'm very tempted sometimes to not check the box for sex, but to write in...not enough. lol
Smiles,
Karyn :-)

Comment from Lovinia
Hi Shari
I've missed your writing and what do I come across when catching up? ROFL!!!
I love your senryu and the way your mind thinks. This is extremely clever and so humorous about the exasperation of the gender bender generation. I think the heart orientation is perhaps the most important .. your illustration is so apt ... I wish I could read the fine print. Your poem offers a great point to embellish your topic. Well done. Hugs - Lovi xoxo

I've missed your reviewing and kisses and hugs signature. It's too bad the words on the poster are so blurred. Thanks for stopping by.

Very good! And appropriate for the new normal of random sexes. How many choices should really be listed, I wonder? This is all so absurd.

Can you imagine the different sections in a clothing store?

Sounds like something I would do. Very creative. Wonder what kids would think. :-)
Comment from tfawcus
An interesting social comment. I guess 'genderation' also covers chairman /chairwoman/ chairperson, etc. I wonder what the other boxes might be? Both? Neither? Not sure? Neuter? The mind boggles!

Ha ha! So very clever, Spitfire!
The artwork is a fun and perfect enhancement for your well chosen words -- especially "genderation." Did you coin this word? It's wonderful!
Well done! Thanks for making me laugh. Alana

As far as I know, the word is original, made especially for the poem. Thanks, Alana.

Regarding the picture, I went on google images and wrote in sex confusion. This was one of the choices. How lucky can a gal(I think LOL) get. Thank you so much for the exceptional rating.
Trust me, I have my down days too. I'm been on 40mg Celexa for the past nine years. Living 24/7 with your mate when you're retired takes patience no matter how much you love him.

The six is for exceptional creative thinking--and a valid social observation! As usual you provoke much thinking with just a few well chosen words. Thanks! Caroline

Caroline, you made my day. Thanks for the sixer.
Comment from Dean Kuch
Heh-heh, yeah, Shari, you're absolutely right. The Gingerbread Man is a thing of the past. Now, you've coined a new phrase for modern-day times, "The Genderbread Person". Fitting, giving the state of relationships these days, one would think, LOL.
Good word play, and a fun poem to read and contemplate.
Good stuff, yum-yum... :)

I don't know if you read someone's post on the transgender boy named Ryland, but it got me to thinking... dangerous, huh. ;-)

No, I haven't read that one, Shari. But, such is the world in which we live today, like it or not... ~Dean
