O CASO LAERTE
CONSIDERAÇÕES FINAIS
Página | 39
Transgender people face repeatedly regulatory norms of gender and sexuality, which are
based on binary landmarks. When they transgress them, they are susceptible to a multitude
of symbolic and/or physical violence, including invisibility and a radical imposed muteness.
As such violence deprives them of a full exercise of citizenship, eventually focus on how
their social existence are (or not) legitimized. Taking this into consideration, the main
purpose of this article is to establish some theoretical, epistemological and methodological
considerations about the media visibility of transgender people, taking as an example a case
study about Laerte Coutinho.
KEYWORDS: Transsexualism. Media. Consumption. Visibility policies.
