Precarious cisgenerities:

race, gender and sexuality against the politics of report

Authors

Abstract

This paper aims to discuss the way trans activism has fought against a biologizing reading about gender. To this end, the political use of the “cisgenerity” category is recognized from recent years, but instead of understanding, this process has also given way to a place of notes. Being cis, in this context, has come to be synonymous with being privileged, but this is a statement that only makes sense as cisgenerity is (de)racialized and (de)sexualized. Thus, it was proposed to articulate it with the butlerian concept of “precarity”, assuming the possibility of think about a normative structure at risk, having as its bet the composition of networks capable of leading us to a political movement through the encounter, exchange and difference.
