Experimentations queer in a research about production of femininities in “trans bodies”

Abstract

In this article, we analyze some aspects about otherness, addressing the body not like a materiality, but above all in their properties affectations and possibilities. These reflections are presented based on an experimentation, developed in the course of development of a master's thesis, which was the experience of “se montar” by the researcher (registered at birth as female). Through this experimentation and subsequent dialogues about it, we discussed the limits and possibilities of a Queer theoretical body, entering on questions of production dimorphic model of bodies, the heteronorm, and intelligibility that produces viable (or not) some bodies. In this process still we are discussing issues relating to the abjection and gender as performativity.
