摘要：This paper analyses the two major paradigms through which the trans phenomenon has been conceptualized in Western societies: transsexuality and transgenderism. Based on data obtained from two qualitative research projects conducted in Catalonia (Spain), we show the existence of conflicts between individuals and groups close to both paradigms. Some who consider themselves to fall within the realm of transsexuality criticize those whose bodies and subjectivities do not conform to gender binary believing them to compromise their social integration project. On the other hand, some transgenderist activists complain that certain sectors rejecting their trans condition, seeking social normalization. The paper concludes with a problematization of trans people’s ability to reinforce or subvert the sex/gender system.
