| Sumario: | The wrong-body-narrative - what's wrong with it?The common story of being ";trapped in the wrong body"; has become pivotal of trans experiences and indicative of what it means to be transsexual, often found in autobiographical accounts as well as in medical contexts of gender reassignment practice. Queer theorists as well as trans theorists and activists have critiqued the wrong-body-narrative for its complicity with essentialist, reifying, dominant and oppressive gender binary norms. In this article I argue for a phenomenological approach to the wrong-body-narrative. This is done through a series of conceptual suggestions that works to reframe the phenomenon to encompass such critical perspectives while they simultaneously make room for a wider spectrum of epistemological, ethical and ontological dimensions of the very experiences that inhabit the wrong body narrative. |
