Nyohoho!

Like just get into Halo or Warhammer.

There's whole books just on that shit. You don't have to bother trans women about it.

John is a boy who is kidnapped at 7 years old.

Pumped full of hormones as he grows to make him a more masculine and effective killing machine with a final surgery in mid-adolesence.

Brainwashed into absolute loyalty to a military hierarchy with very little actual sense of self.

And given a handler to point him at targets and says "kill".

Two of the biggest Military Science Fiction Franchises of the last few Decades:

Women are perverse, so transfem narratives are narratives about Becoming Perverse, Becoming Woman, the transfer from subject to object.

But trans men have a very interesting relationship with masculinity. And I see that it's often very torn. It's fraught. It's not a dynamic that's native to me, it's completely alien and it's genuinely compelling - but if you take someone like John Halo the Space Marine's narrative, there's a way that someone who's trans masc might very well see that there's something terrifying but compelling about being masculinized into a war weapon. You know it's wrong, but society loves it. You're honored and lionized. You're also a very bad person. The identity you are and need to become is inextricably linked with these narratives.

It's not perverse to be masculinized into John Halo. It's normal. You were perverse, and you're being fixed. That's society's narrative. You can be improved beyond your station, you can go from object to subject.
