Trans people are one of the worst-treated groups in our society. In a country with a life expectancy of eighty-three years, we allow a social group, that of trans women, to be subjected to such a degree of violence that it barely reaches fifty. This data alone should alert the media, implement specific laws, and promote reparation measures. But none of that happens.
On the contrary, this group has to continue to endure very serious deficiencies in their medical treatment, constant institutional violence, unemployment that is close to eighty-five percent and humiliation by society. In this book, several trans people tell their experiences in different fields: work, the education system, social networks, family, marriage, media and the medical system. They speak in the first person of their experiences under the shadow of that violence, but also of their courage and their struggle.
