BARRETO, Danielle Jardim; SALES, Adriana Barbosa; PERES, Wiliam Siqueira  and  DALLAPICULA, Catarina. Can transvestites study? Regimes of truth on vibrating bodies in schools. Rev. psicol. polít. [online]. 2018, vol.18, n.42, pp.322-336. ISSN 1519-549X.

This article aims at questioning the knowledge produced on transvestites' bodies, their permanency and belongingness within educational spaces. With this purpose, researchers from both psychology and educational fields got together based on their social engagement to the maintenance of the trans-vestites' rights to free and full access to the educational system, health care and pleasures, without suffering any kind of pathologization by the psychology. The methodological path is based on literature review and questioning non-binary bodies thinking possibilities, which create other discourse possibilities for both the psy and educational interventions in the educational field through the resistances lived within regimes of truth on heteronormative gender and sexualities. The presence of vibrating transvestites bodies within school spaces may broaden the life possibilities to the lives and experiences that deviate from the hegemonic discourses that determine which lives may be lived and which are not mourned.

Keywords : Transvestites; Regimes of truth; School Spaces; Psychology.
