Abstract:

The present research aimed to identify and discuss the social representations of trans women related to gender identity and transphobia in Brazil and Colombia. In this study participated 43 Trans women, 22Brazil, aged between 18 and 55 years (M= 29.09, SD = 8.53) and 21Colombia, aged between 21 and 41 years (M = 28.19, SD = 7.63). This study adopted a qualitative approach in which semi-structured interviews were used. The data were analyzed by the Iramuteq software, which identified the social representations in classes. The results showed what the participants understood about transphobia and how they regarded their experiences with this gender identity. The participants presented negative social representations, aiming at their personal experiences related to their social context. Themes related to violence, discrimination, prejudice, denial of rights and family support emergedboth the Brazilian and Colombian sample. Implications for Tran´s quality of life are discussed.
