Abstract
This autoethnography traces Susan Stryker’s articulation of transgender rage through the monstrous cyborg figure of the catfish (people who pretend to be someone else online), examining the passing politics of the Turing Test and its trans foundations. The author’s disidentification with catfish characters in Glee, Pretty Little Liars, and Gossip Girl allows these characters to transmit and produce transgender rage, illustrating the strengths and weaknesses of taking a disidentificatory approach to transphobic texts.
