Resumen
El presente estudio “(Re)significar la identidad: Construcción del self en personas
transexuales en Santiago de Chile” se articula principalmente desde los planteamientos de la
sociología del género, en base a los posicionamientos del interaccionismo simbólico y
teorizaciones foucaultianas que retrabajaran el concepto de identidad tradicional desde una
polarización del self, como un concepto medio que permite entender la transición identitaria;
con el objetivo de reconstruir las modalidades en que las personas trans comprenden su
transformación y conformación identitaria durante el año 2023.
Desde una metodología cualitativa, con un enfoque descriptivo, se buscó analizar las
narrativas por medio de la realización de 7 entrevistas abiertas, interpretando trayectorias
biográficas que tienen sus indicios en la infancia (etapa estructurante de la identidad),
pasando por cuestionamientos ligados a la sexualidad en la adolescencia, que buscan
respuesta por medio de figuras representativas de comunidades trans/disidentes. Permitiendo
resignificar la noción arraigada de identidad tradicionalista a través de practicas de
autocuidado y resistencia.
Finalmente, se percibe que estas trayectorias se interpretan como desviaciones en el curso
normal del desarrollo, dando lugar a transformaciones sustanciales en la manera en que las
personas perciben, experimentan y abordan cuestiones relacionadas con el género, las
sexualidades y las identidades. Estas interrupciones en el proceso productivo se revelan como
puntos de inflexión que influyen de manera profunda en la comprensión y vivencia individual
de aspectos fundamentales de la identidad y la sexualidad.
The present study, "(Re)signifying Identity: Construction of the self in transgender individuals in Santiago, Chile," is primarily articulated from the perspectives of gender sociology, based on the principles of symbolic interactionism and Foucauldian theorizations that rework the concept of traditional identity by polarizing the self as a middle ground concept that allows understanding identity transitions. The objective is to reconstruct the modalities in which transgender individuals understand their transformation and identity formation during the year 2023. Utilizing a qualitative methodology with a descriptive focus, the study aimed to analyze narratives through the conduct of 7 open interviews, interpreting biographical trajectories with roots in childhood (a formative stage of identity). The narratives extend through inquiries related to sexuality in adolescence, seeking answers through representative figures within trans/dissident communities. This process allows for a redefinition of the entrenched notion of traditional identity through self-care practices and resistance. Ultimately, these trajectories are perceived as deviations from the normal course of development, leading to substantial transformations in how individuals perceive, experience, and address issues related to gender, sexuality, and identity. These interruptions in the productive process emerge as pivotal points influencing a profound understanding and individual experience of fundamental aspects of identity and sexuality.
