Is it possible for you to force your own personality into two quite different parts, into a male part, and a female part (with all the steriotypical nonsense you might expect), purely with will power? (Assuming no prior medical problems) Perhaps eventually so switching between the two every so often (maybe without control), or even better with memory problems, where memory between the two personalities is independant of each other. Is that possible?

No. Multiple personality disorder is a disease not an attribute you develop like an RPG character.

Are you trying to validate your bi-sexual feelings again?

Yeah, but is one's personality predicated on one's gender identity? I met someone recently who both has well-maintained facial hair and a penchant for wearing floral skirts. Does this mean xe has multiple personalities (and thus a disease) or simply that xyr personality traits do not include a gender?

(Amusing fact I am not making up: this person is a graduate student in my department, specialising in "category theory".)

No, that simply means he needs attention.

I don't know really, thought it might be funny, but if anything it's interesting to know if it is possible.

Psychological problems are not funny. πŸ˜› And I don't think 'tis possible...although if one is really smart and a good actor, s/he might be able to pull it off....

Sorry, I know. πŸ™
It'd be scary if you did manage it and didn't really want to. πŸ˜•
