So we were already cutfing up our mutual identities and, as we did that, we started fo think about why it was so appealing fo us... And one of the things that we decided was that we were both at war with binary culture, the idea of mole and female, black and white, Christian / Muslim, good / bad — all these different either / ors that you mentioned, which are embedded in most cultures. Again, as Burroughs would say, “ Look for the vested interest... ” To control people, to make people behave as slereotypes in order for things to be simple and easy fo control. Anarchy and confusion are not necessarily friendly towards control! So, we began to look at that aspect of it. Why be male or female?
