A random collection of over 1910 books and audiobooks authored by or about my transgender, intersex sisters, and gender-nonconforming persons all over the world. I read some of them, and I was inspired by some of them. I met some of the authors and heroines, some of them are my best friends, and I had the pleasure and honor of interviewing some of them. If you know of any transgender biography that I have not covered yet, please let me know.

Ubirajara de None Caputo - O caso Bruna

Original title: "O caso Bruna: Gênero, transexualidades e opinião pública" (The case of Bruna: Gender, transsexualities and public opinion) by Ubirajara de None Caputo.

"Transvestites and transsexual women demonstrate for the right to use women's restrooms open to the public in a shopping mall in São Paulo. The act has repercussions on a news site of great circulation, provoking the reaction of hundreds of readers. Ubirajara Caputo analyzed the opinions of this group of people, most of whom were against the right of use motivated by religious and social conceptions or by attributing to the plaintiffs a dubious character and distorted aspects of health and body.


Among the messages sent to the site, those that propose actions of extermination both symbolic and physical stand out, approaching the Nazi discourse of the first half of the twentieth century. Ubirajara de None Caputo, a systems analyst with a bachelor's degree in Labor Sciences, is a master's student in Social Psychology at the University of São Paulo and dedicates himself to researching violence against trans people in contemporary Brazil."
