Abstract

Non-binarity is a struggle that is very dear to me and therefore, in a breath of courage, I place myself in this narrative text with three reports of aggression that I suffered throughout this process of living/dying. I intend in this writing to collaborate with present and future reflections on how binarity, combined with gender regulation, makes transgender bodies abject. On my skin, it was there that I felt the hand of a 'cistema' (cisgender + system) weighing, monitoring and punishing, and remembering these events I create strength to continue in a struggle for survival and to help in our expectation of living as dissident bodies . The writing derives from my dissertation and uses narrative/illustrative methods and references to generate reflection within the field of design and gender studies.
