Abstract
This text explores the relations between body, identity of gender and space, considering the production of geographic knowledge that systematically has contributed to the occultation and invisibility of people who are on the margin of the hegemonic norms of gender and have been silenced in their struggle for citizenship. Th e procedure for this investigation has been developed in two years of systematic observation and interviews carried out with a group of thirteen people who haves male bodies and live their lives as women. Like several other groups such as drag - queens, drag - kings, transsexuals, among others, this group transgress the heteronormativity, removing the pretense compulsory order of the body binary organization, of the gender identities, the desires and the space. Moreover, it contributes to a critique of the hege mony concerning the heteronormativity conception of space. This study, besides making visible people’s spatial ways of living enduring a peripheral sexuality, contributes criticizing the hegemony of the heteronormativity conception of space
