        Tomboy

        Roman

        by Thomas Meinecke

        Thomas Meineckes Roman ist ein bizarres Kabinett der gender troubles. Es treten auf: die »zwangsheterosexuelle« Vivian Atkinson, damit beschäftigt, in ihrer Magisterarbeit die Philosophie der amerikanischen Feministin Judith Butler und die Irrtümer Otto Weiningers über Geschlecht und Charakter in Verbindung zu bringen. Da sind der feministische Gelegenheitsarzthelfer Hans Mühlenkamm, die bisexuelle Tennisspielerin Korinna Kohn und die lesbische Doktorandin Franke Stöver, die mit Vivian Bücher und Platten tauschen. Und da ist Fraukes »phallische Verlobte« Angela, ehemals Angelo, die das katholische Frauenmagazin »Monika« abonniert hat, weil sie »ganz einfach Frau« sein will. In Tomboy geraten die Geschlechterverhältnisse ins Tanzen, die Polarität männlich/weiblich wird zum Schmelzen gebracht, als konstruiert entlarvt und in ein Oszillieren überführt - was das Leben nicht einfacher macht.
