    From what I can remember, the simbolism is stronger in the first movie and not so much on the other two. I recall two key things that can simbolize the struggle trans people go through or are references to transgenderism.

    • Neo feels that there is something wrong with the world and that he does not belong in it
    • The Character Switch was originally supposed to be a man in the real world and a woman when plugged in to the matrix.

    I’m sure there’s more but it’s been a while since I came across the analysis.

    Worth noting that when I watched the movies I never made an association with transgenderism. I think in great part because I was not even aware of it.

    I agree with you that the stigma around them is not a net positive. Adults should be able to use tools available, in a safe way and if they don’t harm others in the process. Legalizing their use would also minimize problems from illegal trade.

    Thanks for the info on the PCT, was not aware. The examples I read were extreme, were the person had been using for years and in high doses so they were effectively dependent on them.

    Im gonna ask you. What exactly is the problem with that?

    One example of a problem is the fact that the majority of them do not openly talk about it. In fact it’s the opposite, they deny taking PEDs and claim it’s all hard work and that anybody can achieve it.

    A more specific example is Chris Hemsworth who sells training programs that claim to give you his physique. Don’t you see the problem with this?

    I do agree with you that it if people want to use it they should, under medical supervision and with full understanding of the risks and commitment they bring. My limited understanding of using exogenous hormones is that your body will lose the ability to properly make them and one is bound to taking them for life.
