For the construction of this paper were conducted eight interviews with travestis and female transsexuals who ware living at that time in Paraná- Brazil. The stimulation of discourse about space and death was accomplished through the use of news on this topic, conveyed in newspapers on line. The interviews were analyzed using content analysis which was enable to build and recognize the meanings of social representations created by the group on the relationship between space and death. Social representations established by the group bring the idea of increasing violence, blaming the group for its own marginality condition and moreover, brings the territory of prostitution as a possibility for life and simultaneously as well as risk of death. |
