Pandrogeny is the core philosophical system of PTV3, deeply coloring the lyrics, CD packaging graphics and live video projections. The aim of Pandrogeny is to celebrate
similarities in humans rather than be at the mercy of fear of differences as the only viable path to a unified evolution of the human species. From human to humane, where the “E” stands for evolution. Change is in and of itself always preferable to inertia. To that end s/he and her other half Lady Jaye have simultaneously got identical breast implants on Valentines Day 2003 and subsequently Lady Jaye has got a chin implant, eye surgery, silicon in lips, nose surgery, coloured contact lenses to match Genesis' color. Genesis has had cheek implants, silicon in lips, facial tattoos match Lady Jaye’s beauty marks, larger breast implants (38 "D"), various facial surgeries, liposuction at the waist. Their end is to create a hermaphroditic entity called Breyer P-Orridge.
