Philosophy of Transformation: The Egg and Identity
This chapter examines the philosophical discussions on transformation using the egg as a metaphor in trans discourse, alongside the historical debate between Cuvier and Geoffroy. It highlights how seemingly trivial actions, especially in digital spaces, can drive profound personal and societal transformations while addressing the interplay of cuteness within gender identity and cultural constructs. The chapter also critiques rigid normative identities, advocating for a more fluid understanding of self and desire through the lens of contemporary media and artistic expression.
