Resumen de Sexo, género y transexualidad: de los desafíos teóricos a las debilidades de la legislación españolaKatrina Belsué Guillorme
El siguiente trabajo aborda la transexualidad desde la perspectiva del género y el sexo entendidos como elementos socialmente construidos.
Pone de relieve de qué forma el interés por perpetuar las normas de género hegemónicas lleva a patologizar a las personas transexuales, lo que las conduce a una construcción consciente del género y el sexo elegidos.
También acomete un análisis de la legislación española respecto de esta cuestión, mostrando los avances logrados en los últimos años. Asimismo, expone las debilidades y contradicciones de esta regulación y los problemas que plantea la aplicación a las personas transexuales de la normativa en la que interviene el género. Por último, se realiza una breve referencia al emergente movimiento transfeminista.
