Makeup artist Vinny Ohh has been getting a lot of media attention after a series of interviews where they detailed their extensive plans for surgery to become sexless. "The overall image I want to do is an alien ... I do kind of look like a Martian. I have a really big head, no eyebrows and I've just been connecting with that," they told the Daily Mail. Reactions have been mixed, but we here at Alt+H are in love.
Vinny has already undergone surgery to shape their face into something much more extraterrestrial. They also frequently wear sclera contacts, fake talons and vibrant makeup to further accentuate their alien look. It's a sign of hope for many alterhumans who feel that their outsides don't match their insides - there are things you can do to look less human, and there are people who will help and support you in doing it.
The revolution won't be coming any time soon. The subject of species dysphoria is still a controversial one within the alterhuman community, to say nothing of its reputation outside of it. But people like Vinny Ohh are making it their mission to normalize all kinds of expression of self.
"I do it to inspire the world in a certain way," they said, "I want people to stop labelling others or putting them in boxes."
Marcela Anglesias, producer of Plastics of Hollywood added, "We have all these people, the freaks, the weirdos, and we want to make society understand them."
While it's certainly not a small step for Vinny, it could also end up being a giant leap for alterhuman kind.
