A post by cureltyserpent containing an excerpt from a book. The excerpt reads “Magnetic Dog Sisters were on the door that night, and I didn’t relish trying to get out past them if things didn’t work out. They were two meters tall and thin as greyhounds. One was black and the other white, but aside from that they were as nearly identical as cosmetic surgery could make them. They’d been lovers for years and were bad news in a tussle. I was never quite sure which one had originally been male.”. The poster comments “Can’t beleive [sic] the first characters described in classic cyberpunk fiction are lesbian (one trans) puppygirls with a sister kink”.

Johnny Mnemonic
Genesis P-Orridge of seminal industrial group Throbbing Gristle did something similar:
[P-Orridge] married Jacqueline Breyer, later known as Lady Jaye, in 1995, and together they embarked on the Pandrogeny Project, an attempt to unite as a “pandrogyne”, or single entity, through the use of surgical body modification to physically resemble one another. P-Orridge continued with this project of body modification after Lady Jaye’s 2007 death.
i believe it, and it makes me a wee bit horni.

Are they in the movie?
Yes! Though they don’t get much screen time or introduction.
My wife utterly loves the movie. She’s watched it so many damn times.
Is the movie based on the book, or is the book just the screenplay with different formatting?
The movie was inspired by the short story. The screenplay is actually by William Gibson, the original author.
But it is a historic case of executive meddling. The end product was a huge disappointment and a commercial flop that many studios apparently took as a warning against attempting to adapt cyberpunk to the big screen.
My wife loves it for the camp.
I can’t believe that.
