Original title: "Il coraggio di essere una farfalla" (The courage to be a butterfly) by Vladimir Luxuria and Stefano Genovese
Luxuria casts her "trans gaze" on what she calls the great "transgenic" issues of our time.
"You'll be trans too! We all pass through this world, we are just passing through. We are born, we die, and perhaps we are reincarnated... Who knows.
The only thing that is certain is that we are not immortal and that thing we call life is nothing but a transit enclosed in the time of a dream."
"It takes more courage to be a butterfly than to flaunt the virility of a gorilla."
Few have the courage to wear "their own dress", not caring about the opinion of others. With a lucid, intelligent, and light-hearted look at the world, Vladimir Luxuria did so after a long intellectual, spiritual and social commitment journey. Television personality in the talk shows of costume and politics, former parliamentarian, columnist of La Repubblica, and animator of the Gay Village in Rome, Luxuria throws her "trans gaze" on what she calls the great "transgenic" issues of our time: power, religion, sex, art, and love.
