Abstract

The following paper analyses the specific violence directed towards trans population in Brazil, known as transphobia. In this sense, the evidence shows that this group is far more vulnerable than the rest of the LGTB community. On this object, an analysis will be carried out to recognize the incidence of the transphobia phenomenon in Brazilian society and its different expressions. The possible causes that create the current paradoxical situation that comes, on one hand, from the social and legal acceptance and, on the other hand, from the high rate of recorded violence, will also be considered.
