Abstract

Ok Lucid is an aesthetic research in which I explore the public perceptions over my transsexuality by means of an online dating site. This is a moment of lucidity. The interaction takes shape in sexually-charged messages received as a cisgendered perceived woman. The experiment progresses with a disclosure of myself as a transsexual woman. From the group of men that contacted me: 50% cease responding, 20% are curious, 10% are confused, 10% are turned-on, 9% respond negatively and 1% other.
