#I watched Madoka the same week I went to doctors and 90% (still waiting for some results) would need to take estrogen from now on

I watched Puella Magi Madoka Magica 2011 anime. And it took me by surprise how much I resonated with Sayaka. (Well, in fairness, Madoka Magika anime as a whole wasn't what I was expecting it to be). The only part I didn't really get at first is Sayaka’s reaction when she found out that her soul had been extracted from the body, making it just a vessel for her soul. Kyubey’s arguments were solid for me, it’s much more effective. 
It struck me differently when I looked at it from a perspective of an intersex person that was forced to take “magical pills” that altered its body, making the person more and more detached from its body. I understand that Sayaka 99.999% wasn’t planned as such representation. But maaaan it fits almost perfectly given Sayaka’s personality etc (at least for me)……
