The
COMBINED GENDER IDENTITY AND TRANSSEXUALITY INVENTORY
( COGIATI )
RESULTS
Your COGIATI result value is: -90 Which means that you fall within
the following category:
COGIATI classification THREE, ANDROGYNE
What this means is that the Combined Gender Identity And
Transsexuality Inventory has classified your internal gender identity
to be essentially androgynous, both male and female at the same time,
or possibly neither.
In some cultures in history, you would be considered to be a third
sex, independent of the polarities of masculine or feminine. Your
gender issues are intrinsic to your construction, and you will most
likely find your happiness playing with expressing both genders as
you feel like it.
SUGGESTIONS FOR ACTION:
Your situation is a little tricky in our current society, but not
tremendously so, depending on your geographic location.
The suggestions for your circumstance are not overly complicated.
1. If you have any comfortability about your gender expression, some
slight degree of counseling might well prove helpful. The primary
goal would be to make it possible for you to enjoy your gender
expressions free from any shame or embarrassment, and to resolve any
remaining questions you might have.
2. As an androgynous being, both genders, and both sexes are natural
to your expression. Permanent polarization in either direction might
bring significant unhappiness. It is not recommended that you go
through a complete transsexual transformation. You might find a
partial transformation of value, if you find yourself more attracted
overall to the feminine. You are more likely a transgenderist, than a
transsexual. It is recommended that you recognize that your gender
issues are real, but that extreme action regarding them should be
viewed with great caution.
3. If you have not already, consider joining any of the thousands of
groups devoted to gender play of various varieties. There is
literally a world of friends to discover who share your interests.
There are also publications, vacations, and activities that would
expand your gender play.
