System E: Why we are not “Wrong”, Just Out-of-Bounds
The Math of Gender Theory.
We spend half our lives trying to explain the inexplicable with words. We use metaphors, colours, flags, and endless, exhausting discourse to describe the sensation of being. But words are messy. They are noisy, lossy, and prone to misinterpretation by the receiver.
I am an engineering student and deal in signals, noise, and systems. And lately, confronted with the chaotic data of my own existence, I asked myself: What happens if we subtract the emotion? What remains if we treat gender dysphoria, societal perception, and the self not as a "feeling", but as a dynamic system?
The result is System E. It is a mathematical derivation of why the problems of living (queer) authenticity in a normative society are a signal-to-noise problem and why the transmission error lies not with you, but with the receiver.
