"How Pinoy R U? Pag narinig mo ang mga salitang "Ponoy Ako," kanta lang ba ng Orange and Lemons ang naiisip mo? Kung ipinanganak ka sa isa sa mga 7,107 islands ng Perlas ng Silangan, Pinoy ka. O kahit na sa ibang bansa ka nagkamulat pero certified Filipinos ang parents mo, matatawag ka ding kalahi ni Jose Rizal at Manny Pacquiao. Pero what makes a person truely Pinoy? Ano ang mga distinct moral values na nagdedescribe kung sino nga ba tayo? Nagjoin forces sina Ronald at Rei para lang iexplain ang mechanics of being a true Filipino - sa isip, sa salita at sa gawa. At ang lahat nang ito ay nagsisimula sa puso."--Cover

This essay analyzes the representation of transgenderism in Ricky Lee's Tagalog-language novel Si Amapola sa 65 na Kabanata (Amapola in 65 Chapters). By situating the novel against the heteronormative operations of the nation-state, the analysis investigates how Amapola's transformation from a politically apathetic comedy bar performer to an aswang (viscera-stucker) who is desrined to save the nation semantically radicalizes the image of transgenderism through the dynamics of revolutionary subjectification. This investigation then inserts Amapola's transgenderism into the Filipiino history - from the babaylan-led anti-colonial peasant movements during the Spanish and American colonial periods to the contemporary national democratic movement led by the Communist Party of the Philippines.
