WE NAME WOMEN WHO spend too much time with nature Witch. Dub her dangerous. Unpredictable. Call her Other.

Witches are what we call the negative aspect of femininity. Which, of course, according to her, doesn't exist.

Othering? You mean like calling all men rapists and saying all sex is rape?

Genderqueer felt broad, expansive, fluid. It felt encompassing. Encompassing, like my lake.

Oh right, the lake! I almost forgot about the lake and the Fitz. Yes go back to that subject please.
