What if...

You could change your physical gender. I’m imagining it slowly changing over about six months to whatever you ‘set’ it to and you could change it any time and as many times as you wanted.

The flexible gender stuff is one of the things I like about the Culture novels.

To clarify my answer more:

On the whole I feel I'm cis-gendered female, and I'm okay with that. But if it were a reversible option, I would happily spend a couple of years as male, or as you say, in between. And I would love to live in a world where gender was purely optional.
