about

This song... Well... To be honest, this song did not turn out like how I had intended!

The original concept was to make some incredibly high BPM (i.e 220 BPM) breakcore noise nonsense that was meant to be aggressive and uncomfortable. Because the world is aggressive about whats in my pants, and it makes me uncomfortable existing within its binary assumptions.

I wanted to aggressively shove in your face a bunch of genitalia words, and blend the needlessly gendered words enough that you cannot tell what is said anymore. I wanted to try to describe even some small amount of what it is like to exist with a trans body in this world.

As a trans women, the world constantly tells you that "your body is valid, just the way it is!" Yet despite this, the cis community still inevitably turns around and shows you that it is not the case.

Trans people are constantly reminded that our bodies by nature exclude us from spaces we should otherwise be welcome in. Whether it be the trans man who is told shunned from brunch because he isn't "sexually compatible with cis-gay men" or the trans woman being told that someones "genital preference" is a valid thing to have and that it is more important than that trans woman.

Until a penis can be womanly, and a vagina can be thicc, trans people can never truly be accepted. Until the cis-queer community accepts that "genital preference" is just another way of expressing transphobia, we will never be welcome.

And if you disagree with that, you have some soul searching to do.
