OUR NAME. OUR RECLAMATION.

The German word "Fotze" was used as an insult. A word meant to shame, diminish, and silence.

We took it back. Not to soften it. Not to make it acceptable. But to strip it of its power over us.

"Sick" stands for what comes after. Sick of being judged. Sick of being reduced. Sick of being discriminated against for who we are, how we look, what we desire, or how we choose to express ourselves.

FOTZSICK is the collision of both. The insult they gave us. And the refusal to accept it.

This is not just a name. It is resistance made visible.

WHY FOTZSICK

Words only have the power we allow them to have.

What was once used to shame can become a symbol of freedom. What was rejected can become beautiful. What was misunderstood can become art.

FOTZSICK is more than a name.
