The Ultimate Goal: A Sexless, Genderless Alien

The documentary Dr. Money and the Boy with No Penis depicts the tragic experience of a young boy and the psychologist who attempts to “treat” him after an unfortunate accident. In a time of little knowledge of sexual variation Dr. John Money proposed the theory that a boy could be raised as a girl, but after years of failed attempts this theory would be shattered. This story began when twins Bruce and Bryan went in to the hospital to have a routine circumcision operation at 7 months of age. On the 27th of April 1966 Bruce was the first of the two twins to be operated on, but the procedure would not go as planned. The boy’s parents were soon informed that their son’s penis had been fully burned off in a nontraditional attempt to burn the foreskin away from the penis. In a position of great confusion the Reimers became hopeful in light of such tragedy as they later became aware of the work of Dr. John Money, a man who was becoming a pioneer in the field of sex change surgery. In meeting with this man the Reimers were informed that their baby boy could live a normal life as a girl.

Gender being ‘biologically determined’ means that whether gender is inherited or passed down by genetics. If a person is a man or woman, (which is usually called ‘The Sex’), that is biologically determined because they inherit the chromosomes to be born a man, or to be born as a woman. In the early 1970’s sex was described by “biology as: anatomy, hormones, and physiology” (West and Zimmerman 1987). Apart from gender being a biological factor, there are other things which are not biologically determined; “Gender was an achieved status, which was constructed through psychological, cultural and social means” (West and Zimmerman1987). Hence the answer

During the evolutionary adaptation time period, between 10-40 thousand years ago, our ancestors were hunter-gatherers. This created a division between men and women. The men would hunt for food and the women would be in charge of the domestic duties such as cleaning and cooking. Doing the domestic chores would have kept women more protected, as it is less strenuous and would have guarded the camp whilst the men were out hunting therefore increasing the chances of reproductive success. This division of labour would have made them less likely to sustain injuries and so the evolutionary approach would suggest that the groups who divided the labour were been more likely to

Is becoming a genderless alien possible? Vinny Ohh is a 24 year old male who has undergone 110 cosmetic procedures, he now wants to undergo surgery that would make him genderless. He claims he wants to become a “genderless alien”. Vinny Ohh should not be permitted to make surgical changes to become a “genderless alien” because the surgery has never been performed before and doctors don’t know how it would affect his body in now and in the long run.

Vinny Ohh, a professional makeup artist and part time model, is currently deciding on spending as almost as $50,000 to surgically turn his body into a genderless alien. The main concern is that Vinny is too young in our standards to make any medical decisions. He was only seventeen when he received his first plastic surgery. Vinny Ohh should not be permitted to have any more surgical changes at this vulnerable age, due to his still developing brain and medical problems in the aftermath.

People with gender Identity crises do not feel their genitalia reflects who they are inside. They may feel a powerful drive to have their genitalia match their self-image opting for sex reassignment surgery. Gender expression is far more relaxed than it has been throughout our history in America, but it still poses a problems for some on a daily basis. Gender expression is one area where women have a social advantage over men. It is far more socially acceptable for a woman to dress masculine than for a man to dress feminine; although neither are without predigests.

With the talk that Reptilian aliens control our world then raises questions of what do they look like. Technology has been evolving for many years as conspiracy theories have as well. There are a lot of photoshopped images of what is claimed to be famous world leaders taking on the forms of Reptilian shape-shifters. Many images are altered to look “real” and convince the population that this myth is true. There is not however any credible photographic proof that these alleged world leaders are in fact shape-shifters. There are a lot of softwares that can edit and create images that are available to the public.

Brandon must separate his biological sex from the gender that he wants to portray to society and himself. Judith Lorber states that “[f]or the individual, gender construction starts with assignment to a sex category on the basis of what the genitalia look like at birth” (Lorber 1). This is the case for every individual. When

Barbara Perry’s article “Doing Gender and Doing Gender Inappropriately” addresses violence and gender, and how gender is influenced through the way it is perceived in society. The construction of gender comes in polar extremes, with masculine dominant men and feminine subordinate women. Gendered violence is used to control women as a class. It is a systematic tool used by men to reinforce gender norms and patriarchal ideas of masculine superiority and feminine inferiority. It “terrorizes the collective by victimizing the individual”. Like any dichotomy, it has scripts, and to deviate from these scripts will leave you labeled as ‘unnatural’ and ‘immoral’. These scripts “constrain everything from modes of dress and social roles to ways of expressing emotion and sexual desire”. In Judith Lorber’s “A World Without Gender” we are introduced to the possibility of eliminating gender and how “degendering [would] undercut the patriarchal and oppressive structure of Western Societies”.

Bradley et al., also mention a similar case in which a 2-month year old male was injured during an electrocautery circumcision and his entire penile shaft was burned and the penis eventually sloughed off. At 7-months the rest of the penis and testes were removed and the parents made the decision to reassign their son to a female and to raise him as a girl. The patient was interviewed at two separate times. The first time was at age 16 and the patient stated that she had been living a female life and had no uncertainty about being a woman. The patient mentioned that during her childhood she viewed herself as a “tomboy” but she still maintained her circle of friends to mainly girls. She wanted to have sexual intercourse with males so she arranged a vaginoplasty. She was interviewed once more at age 26 and reported that she had been attracted to women in fantasy, and enjoyed experiences with both women and men. She now

Money, who then scheduled sessions for Brenda, as well as her twin brother, Brian. Regardless of how Ron and Janet believed the sessions were going, Brenda felt uncomfortable and eerie, speaking with Dr. Money. The doctor would slowly gear into the topic of Brenda’s vagina, stipulating that she have an additional two surgeries, in order to fully transform her into a young woman. The surgeries being to make her urethra into the “female position” and secondly, to “excavate a full vaginak canal” (92). Brenda did not agree to this, as she envisioned herself as a male, with facial hair, friends, and a “sports car”. Evidently, Brenda was not content with herself.

It is often recognized that a baby boy with genitalia is supposed to grow up to become a man. Anything that deviates from the norms of what the society perceives is “not

What is gender nonconforming? Is it the same thing as being transgender? The answer is no. According to GLAAD (2017), gender nonconforming and transgender are umbrella terms, therefore, gender nonconforming people do not always identify themselves as transgender and not all transgender people are gender nonconforming. Gender nonconforming is a term used to describe people whose behavior and/or appearance is different from prevailing expectations of masculinity and femininity (GLAAD, 2017). Transgender is a term for people whose gender expression and gender identity are different than the gender they were assigned at birth (GLAAD, 2017).
