Synopsis
Novelette on the 2015 Tiptree Honor list.
A post-humanist analogy of weaponized femininity, where essentialist notions of gender are deployed by a patriarchal military structure looking for the perfect soldier in a particular niche. The unintended result is a women-centered subculture with the power and opportunity to strike out on their own, for those with the inclination and independence to trade some of the trappings of humanity for that freedom. It's a fascinating, nuanced, and furious exploration of a range of ideas around women and beauty, the military, body modification, and loyalty.
The story originally appeared in Lightspeed: Women Destroy Science Fiction! Special Issue, June 2016. It can also be found in the anthology Mermaids and Other Mysteries of the Deep (2015), edited by Paula Guran.
