This quote is powerfully resonant to me. We live in a cultural, economic, political system that demands and enforces continual reproduction and production to sustain growth. This regularly results in the suppression of the identities and lived experiences of people who do not fit the mould of "1 man + 1 woman = more babies (read: future workers)". The suppression of people who do not accept having their lives reduced to reproduction and production for the ultimately unsustainable quest for forced, cancerous growth - living beings who prize authenticity and love and thriving in this beautiful, finite, transient world. We are the Queers, the Uranians.

I am not a man.
I am not a woman.
I am not heterosexual.
I am not homosexual.
I am not bisexual.
I am a dissident of the sex-gender system.
I am the multiplicity of the cosmos,
shouting at you.
