| Summary: | This article analyzes the designations chosen by the vehicles Tititi, R7 Site and Site G1 to represent the MC’s Xuxu, Transnitta and Banana Woman and the issues about trans people, sexuality and gender, generated on the basis of textual and discursive heterogeneity. My intention is to discuss how the journalistic media practices (both magazine and newspaper) designate, call and assign voices to MC’s, who are women trans gendered female

(1999), and epistemological and ontological research on gender identities, sexuality and sex (LOURO, 2007; Butler, 2010, 2015; CESAR; 2014; BENTO, 2015th, BENTO, 2015b) and the debate on the body as a semiotic construct (LE BRETON, 2003 2010, 2014) |
