“Neo learns who Trinity is and says, “I thought you were a guy.” Her reply: “Most guys do.” Already you can see how some of this allegory isn’t subtext at all, but it very surface-level supertext once you know what to look for! But also note that if Trinity is Neo’s self-actualization, he’s saying to himself that he thought he was a guy. He thought his true self was a man, because that’s what society said he was. But he’s not! His fully realized self is a woman”
