If you\u2019ve ever seen sis\u00adsy porn, you\u2019ll know that tur\u00adning people female is exact\u00adly what sis\u00adsy porn says it does. Also known as for\u00adced femi\u00adni\u00adza\u00adtion or \u201cfor\u00adced fem,\u201d sis\u00adsy porn seems to have begun cir\u00adcu\u00adla\u00adting prin\u00adci\u00adpal\u00adly on the micro\u00adblog\u00adging plat\u00adform Tumblr in or around 2013. The genre is cha\u00adrac\u00adte\u00adris\u00adti\u00adcal\u00adly user-gene\u00adra\u00adted rather than pro\u00addu\u00adced by a tra\u00addi\u00adtio\u00adnal stu\u00addio : in large part, sis\u00adsy content crea\u00adtors would appro\u00adpriate videos, stil\u00adls, and ani\u00adma\u00adted GIFs from mains\u00adtream hete\u00adro\u00adsexual or \u201cshe\u00admale\u201d pornography\u2014intellectual pro\u00adper\u00adty is noto\u00adrious\u00adly dif\u00adfi\u00adcult to pro\u00adtect in today\u2019s porn industry\u2014and modi\u00adfy this mate\u00adrial with cap\u00adtions alte\u00adring their ori\u00adgi\u00adnal mea\u00adning. In late 2018, when the micro\u00adblog\u00adging plat\u00adform moved to ban gra\u00adphic sexual content, sis\u00adsy porn crea\u00adtors, like many other sex wor\u00adkers, were for\u00adced to flee to other plat\u00adforms, inclu\u00adding Twitter and Instagram.<\/p>\n
Sissy porn\u2019s cen\u00adtral conceit is that the women it depicts (some cis, some trans, most\u00adly but not always white) are in fact for\u00admer men who have been femi\u00adni\u00adzed (\u201csis\u00adsi\u00adfied\u201d) by being for\u00adced to wear makeup, wear lin\u00adge\u00adrie, and per\u00adform acts of sexual sub\u00admis\u00adsion. This is exe\u00adcu\u00adted through the unique form of second-per\u00adson address in which cap\u00adtions are typi\u00adcal\u00adly writ\u00adten : sis\u00adsy porn direct\u00adly addresses its vie\u00adwers and pre\u00adsumes to inform them of their own desires : \u201cYou love to be fucked in the ass,\u201d for ins\u00adtance, or \u201cYou want to suck cock.\u201d (Sissy porn often uses cock as an uncoun\u00adtable mass noun, like water or sugar, pre\u00adsu\u00adma\u00adbly because there can always be more.) Captions fur\u00adther ins\u00adtruct vie\u00adwers to unders\u00adtand that the very act of loo\u00adking at sis\u00adsy porn itself consti\u00adtutes an act of sexual degra\u00adda\u00adtion, with the impli\u00adca\u00adtion that, whe\u00adther they like it or not, vie\u00adwers will inevi\u00adta\u00adbly be trans\u00adfor\u00admed into females them\u00adselves. This makes sis\u00adsy porn a kind of meta\u00adpor\u00adno\u00adgra\u00adphy, that is, porn about what hap\u00adpens to you when you watch porn. In other words, sis\u00adsy porn takes the impli\u00adcit\u00adly femi\u00adni\u00adzing effect of all por\u00adno\u00adgra\u00adphy (even the most vanilla) and pro\u00admotes it to the level of expli\u00adcit content\u2014often with spec\u00adta\u00adcu\u00adlar results.<\/p>\n
At the cen\u00adter of sis\u00adsy porn lies the asshole, a kind of uni\u00adver\u00adsal vagi\u00adna through which fema\u00adle\u00adness can always be acces\u00adsed. In the mid\u00adst of the AIDS cri\u00adsis, the gay male cri\u00adtic Leo Bersani famous\u00adly wrote that public hor\u00adror of anal sex betrayed a hate\u00adful envy of the \u201cinto\u00adle\u00adrable image of a grown man, legs high in the air, unable to refuse the sui\u00adci\u00addal ecs\u00adta\u00adsy of being a woman.\u201d Sissy porn takes this lite\u00adral\u00adly. Getting fucked makes you female because fucked is what a female is. At the same time, sis\u00adsy porn remains whol\u00adly unin\u00adte\u00adres\u00adted in who\u2019s doing the fucking. Men appear, when they appear, only in frag\u00adments : a hand, an ass, a stray leg. Tops are props ; their func\u00adtion is pure\u00adly struc\u00adtu\u00adral. \u201cTo call a man an ani\u00admal is to flat\u00adter him,\u201d Valerie writes in SCUM. \u201cHe\u2019s a machine, a wal\u00adking dil\u00addo. It\u2019s often said that men use women. Use them for what ? Surely not pleasure.\u201d<\/p>\n
Sissy porn makes frequent use of fetish objects\u2014makeup, lin\u00adge\u00adrie, breasts, high heels, and the color pink\u2014but unlike the clas\u00adsi\u00adcal Freudian fetish, these objects pro\u00admise cas\u00adtra\u00adtion, ins\u00adtead of war\u00adding against it. For Freud, the fetish was a clear sub\u00adsti\u00adtute for the \u201cabsent female phal\u00adlus.\u201d The lit\u00adtle boy, trau\u00adma\u00adti\u00adzed by the dis\u00adco\u00adve\u00adry that his mother has no penis and fea\u00adring lest the same fate befall his own, looks for reas\u00adsu\u00adrance to an object that can replace that penis\u2014a high-hee\u00adled shoe, for ins\u00adtance, or the touch of vel\u00advet. The fetish is thus \u201ca token of triumph over the threat of cas\u00adtra\u00adtion and a pro\u00adtec\u00adtion against it.\u201d Yet even Freud knew that the fetish, in disa\u00advo\u00adwing cas\u00adtra\u00adtion, the\u00adre\u00adby impli\u00adcit\u00adly ack\u00adnow\u00adled\u00adged it ; sis\u00adsy porn exploits this weak\u00adness, trans\u00adfor\u00adming the fetish from an assu\u00adrance that the penis will be kept safe into a gua\u00adran\u00adtee that the penis will be lost fore\u00adver. This means that, in cases where the sis\u00adsy is a trans woman, even her own feti\u00adshi\u00adzed penis becomes a sym\u00adbol of cas\u00adtra\u00adtion. If her penis is limp, it is mocked for its tiny size and cal\u00adled a \u201cclit\u00adty\u201d; if it is hard, this is sim\u00adply proof that she is enjoying her degradation.<\/p>\n
In fact, to be a sis\u00adsy is always to lose your mind. The tech\u00adni\u00adcal term for this is bim\u00adboi\u00adfi\u00adca\u00adtion. Captions often ins\u00adtruct vie\u00adwers to sub\u00admit them\u00adselves to hyp\u00adno\u00adsis, brain\u00adwa\u00adshing, brain-mel\u00adting, dum\u00adbing down, and other tech\u00adniques for scoo\u00adping out intel\u00adli\u00adgence. \u201cWhy do I like the concept of being a Bimbo?\u201d asks one user. \u201cIt\u2019s because my brain is always full. I\u2019m always wor\u00adrying if Master tru\u00adly loves me. Am I enough ? Am I making good choices ? Do people actual\u00adly like me ? How can I live in a coun\u00adtry like this with this cur\u00adrent poli\u00adti\u00adcal cli\u00admate ? Where else could I even ima\u00adgine going?\u201d The ges\u00adtures most often loo\u00adped in GIF for\u00admat almost always regis\u00adter the eva\u00adcua\u00adtion of will : wil\u00adting faces, trem\u00adbling legs, eyes rol\u00adled back into heads. Even the GIF for\u00admat itself com\u00admu\u00adni\u00adcates this, a kind of cen\u00adtri\u00adfuge for dis\u00adtil\u00adling the fema\u00adle\u00adness to its barest essentials\u2014an open mouth, an expec\u00adtant asshole, blank, blank eyes.<\/p>\n
Sissy porn did make me trans. At very least it ser\u00adved as a neat alle\u00adgo\u00adry for my desire to be female\u2014and increa\u00adsin\u00adgly, I thought, for all desire as such. Too often, femi\u00adnists have ima\u00adgi\u00adned power\u00adless\u00adness as the sup\u00adpres\u00adsion of desire by some exter\u00adnal force, and they\u2019ve for\u00adgot\u00adten that more often than not, desire is this exter\u00adnal force. Most desire is non\u00adcon\u00adsen\u00adsual ; most desires aren\u2019t desi\u00adred. Wanting to be a woman was some\u00adthing that des\u00adcen\u00added upon me, like a tongue of fire, or an infection\u2014or a men\u00adtal ill\u00adness, at least if you believe the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, where gen\u00adder dys\u00adpho\u00adria can be found sand\u00adwi\u00adched bet\u00adween fri\u00adgi\u00addi\u00adty and pyro\u00adma\u00adnia. The impli\u00adca\u00adtion is obvious : No one in their right mind would want to be female.<\/p>\n
