Abstract

Microaggressions are subtle ways of carrying out attacks on identities because of gender and sexuality. Focusing on non-binary identity, this qualitative research sought to analyze the reports of three participants considering the twelve themes of microaggression by Nadal, Skolnik and Wong (2012), using, for this, a thematic analysis, with the objective of analyzing the most recurrent themes. As a result, only some of the themes were contemplated by the participants' speeches, with greater representation in two themes, being a theme about systemic and environmental microaggressions and the theme of the use of incorrect gender and/or transphobic terminology. Further development is suggested on microaggressions against trans people, especially against non-binary people.
