DIAS, Alfrancio Ferreira; ZOBOLI, Fabio  y  SANTOS, Adriana Lohanna dos. THE BATHROOM AS A POLITICAL SPACE OF GENDER. Rev. Reflex [online]. 2018, vol.26, n.2, pp.165-181.  Epub 16-Sep-2019. ISSN 1982-9949.  https://doi.org/10.17058/rea.v26i2.11734.

The uses of the bodies involve a political territorialisation of the spaces. That being said, the present article aims, from the transexual students bodies at the Federal University of Sergipe (UFS), to analyze the bathroom like political gender space, through a qualitative study on basis of narrative interviews done with seven transexual students of degree courses of the UFS. As result, there is a belief that transexual students deal with difficulties, prejudice situations and, besides, they need to find strategies to use the bathroom in the university. In front of the results of the research, is possible to visualize the necessity of the overcoming of the demarcation and gender government ruled on a policy that not more establishes a subject of fixed identity, but that comprises the plurality of the bodies.

Palabras clave : Body; Gender; Policy; Transsexuality.
