Abstract

ARIAS CUELLAR, lan Anabel. Trans-Torning the Possible Gender's Memories. Games and Clashes with the Sex/Gender System. Rev. colomb. antropol. [online]. 2020, vol.56, n.1, pp.45-84. ISSN 0486-6525.  https://doi.org/10.22380/2539472x.855.

Through a remembrance exercise of two people who transgress the gender that was socially assigned to them (woman). A trans man and a non-binary trans person, I take back elements of their trajectories to demostrate, in dialogue with my experience, the articulation between memories and identity. As bridges between a past, a present and a future in permanent, symbolic and social rupture. Making inteligible these intimate experiences, which from the perspective of cultural matrix of gender are presented as inconsistent, contributes to our understanding of the trans, to the functioning of gender and to its associated memories.

Keywords : transgender; non-binary; memory; gender.
