心口上的蜈蚣：「變」過去的黑色印記

本文旨在敘說一位跨性別者的生活經驗與成長故事。本文以滾雪球方式進行受訪者招募，女跨男的跨性別者M同意受訪，由研究者說明研究目的與權利之後，進行生命故事敘說訪談。完成資料收集之後，研究者使用「整體－內容」的敘說分析方式，進行敘說內容的意念萃取與整理。從受訪者的敘說中：1.描繪其跨性別身分認同與外界環境的衝突掙扎，包括：性別認同經驗、家庭經驗、學校經驗、就業經驗、親密關係經驗、就醫經驗、性別重置經驗、生活經驗等面向；2.為了自身認同付出相當多的代價，在層層堆疊所處環境他人的不理解與排斥、霸凌，到荒謬二元的生活經驗中，曾憂鬱、自殘，但也一個人獨立處理變更性別的議題，靠信仰靈修、正向信念陪自己走過難關；3.跨性別者的問題不在於性別混淆，問題是跨性別者所在的性別二元處境－家庭、學校、醫療、職場，用生理性別決定他／她的生活，在擠壓之中硬是替自己撐出呼吸空間，堅持內心對自身的信念。本文亦提出對於跨性別生命故事的反思，以及對於學校性平教育、詳訂性別重置處遇規定與納入全民健保給付、研議修改身分證換證與性別欄的規定、建立友善環境的建議。
