A woman claiming to be the ‘most modified transsexual in the world’
– has spent £40,000 to look like a dragon - complete with a forked
tongue, tattooed scales and horns .
Eva Tiamat Medusa, from Bruni, Texas, said she wanted to "not to die a human" after receiving an HIV diagnosis.
The former bank worker, 56, began morphing into a reptile, claiming
that after being abandoned by her parents at the age of five, she was
‘born again’ under the care of the western diamondback rattlesnake.
She began her transformation with a series of scale tattoos before
later having her nose re-shaped, ears removed and the whites of her eyes
permanently stained green – all costing an estimated £42k.
But with a further £28k worth of modifications still planned, Eva
opened up about her ‘trans-speciesism’ to The Wizard of Odd TV.
Eva said: "I didn’t want to die in this world looking like a human.
“As much awesomeness and goodness there is in humans, compared to other species they are the most destructive and hateful.
“I decided at that time, that it was time for a change in my life, so I wanted to look like something that wasn’t human."
She added: “I have eight horns on my forehead; I have had my ears removed; my nose reshaped; most of my teeth removed
"I’ve had the white-part of my eyes stained, my tongue
bifurcated, my whole face is tattooed and I’ve had some scarification
and branding on my chest and wrist.
“I would like for there to be an open dialogue about the world
of body modification and understand what it was like to live as a
gay-man for 53-years and now as a transsexual woman.
“There’s a lot of misunderstanding about what it means to be
transsexual and then further than that – something that I’m introducing –
the idea of trans-speciesism.
“I consider myself not just to be human anymore. I’m human AND reptilian.
“My greatest desire in life is to continue my body modification until my metamorphosis is complete.
“This is what drives me – this is the reason why I get up every day and live.”
