Some will claim it’s part of Nietzsche’s nihilistic transvaluation of all values…if it were not a negation of nihilism and Abrahamic “herd psychological” “slave values.”
I would say transgenderism is the ‘logic of Abrahamism’ pushed to its limit - for, if an immortal incorporeal soul can exist, or be trapped, in a mortal corporeal body, and if a “kelipot can trap divine sparks”, then a male spirit can be trapped in a female body, or a singular hermaphrodite divine spirit can be trapped in a multiplicity of body with a sex and gender.
Transgenderism is a symptom of the mind/body dissonance produced by nihilism.
Both spiritual and secular nihilism that begins with words and dismisses or integrated actions into concepts preexisting in minds, with no external referents.
When concepts like 'god, 'morality, ‘free-will’ can be abstracted by detaching them form external referents - essentially converting them to pure noumena, or ideas existing only as abstractions and words in texts - then sex and gender can be detached form the tangible, physical body and rendered meaningless or converted into an idea that refers to nothing or to words in books or ideas in minds.
Matthew 18:20 expresses this reinvention of the idea of man once the body has been crucified.
A “purification” of the concept.
Converting them to pure noumena makes them malleable to mental manipulations.
The tangible world being a undesired limit of how concepts can be defined.
The process is called divine…god of absolutes can only ever exist in the mind, as mind.
Absolutes existing outside of mind would negate existence.
but mind can synthesize and even invert perceptions - so unicorns, Leprechauns, singularities, wholes, ones/nils can only be mental abstractions with no external referents.
Like the one-god of Abraham.
From this we get Americanism’s ‘self-made man’.
A man stripped of his past, including his biological and ethnic, and racial and gender identifiers…all forms of collective identity is ‘transcended’ ideologically, and then man can remake himself from scratch - using monetary messianic codes.
The American individual is an entity that exists only ni theory - a pop-cultural amalgamation of symbols acquired on the open-markets.
As such, why can this entity, this thing-in-itself, not choose - or be fated, determined - to adopt either sex as tis identifier?
But why remain trapped by these binaries and not identify as asexual, or with another species?
Once the schisms reaches a tipping point, psychosis takes over.
Mind feels ‘liberated’ from its own presence, its own body, its own appearance, and can now explore the fashion possibilities available to it.
