ABSTRACT
In this paper I argue that transgender can be read as the formation of nonnormative ethical dispositions. I describe such formations through Aristotelian ethical theory. The agential focus in action on the intermediate as the in-between space between normatively clear positions forms the basis for nonnormative lives. Drawing upon Anzaldúa’s post-colonial interventions I problematise a demand for coherence in such formations. Extending agential endeavours, I touch upon intermediacy between agents as formations of shared standards of evaluation and understanding. My argument problematises an unquestioned stability of ethical agents, and by proxy extends ethical becomings to nontrans agents.
