ABSTRACT

A qualitative research was made to describe the process of transition and the psychological factors bound to a transgender woman of Mexico City using the narrative and deep interview with history life for further analysis and description. It started from the idea that gender is determined by sexual behavior, beliefs, and attitudes of people in their daily becoming. By doing the study through analysis of the history of life there were identified eight categories, and psychosocial elements that are significantly involved. In particular, in this item was identified a strong influence of the patterns of permissive breeding, the absence of male figures as models, but also the relevance of information about the transgender topic as well as the feeling of security in the family core, in order to achieve an identity process and gender expression without relevant negative implications. By doing a comparative between the explored with regard to the topic and the obtained in this research, the binary vision of gender is reconstructed and enriched, alluding to the fact that this identity doesn’t restricts to rigid structures of gender but there exist different ways of living like a man or a woman. It concludes on the importance of continue exploring the subject to promote attitudes of acceptance and recognition of gender diversity.
