British psychoanalysis stands as a structure resistant to change. Long histories of homophobia, transphobia, and the systematic exclusion of LGBTQ+ people from trainings continue to shape the institutional life of the profession. In this expansive dialogue, two queer and trans psychodynamic psychotherapists reckon with the painful legacies that haunted their trainings, and question whether a sense of belonging within psychoanalytic institutions is possible or desirable. This ambivalence is placed within the context of the ongoing reverberations of legislative oppression in the United Kingdom, from Section 28 in 1988 to the transmisogynist Supreme Court ruling on the Equalities Act in 2025. The text makes use of Grace Lavery’s idea of “egg theory” or “the impossibilisation of transition” (2020) as a new way of understanding psychoanalysis’s resistance to change, and turns to the body as a resource, exploring what trans becoming has to offer to institutional stuckness.
