The present work had as an objective to comprehend how is collective identity built by the website/collective transfeminismo.com, noticing the creation of cognitive definitions of the conflict and the we , the emotional investment and the active network of relationships. With this, it was expected to pay attention to the pertinence of the concept of collective identity for the study of cyberactivism, stressing its possibilities and peculiarities. Having cyberactivism defined as the utilization of the internet by social movements, it was possible to analyze how this relation is made up. In the specific study of transfeminismo.com the concept of collective identity was operationalized in the exam of the website transfeminismo.com, the Facebook group Transfeminismo <3 and the interactions with other blogs/websites (Blogueiras Feministas, Geledés and Escreva, Lola, Escreva). Thus, it was observed that the posting of texts on the website functions as the production of a delimited frame, which generates an unitary identity and also exclusions in the process of building the we . The Facebook group has showed little debate, but varied forms of posts that create affectivity between the component individuals. The interactions with other blogs/websites revealed relationships of solidarity and dispute between the cyberactivists subjects. Finally, it is concluded with an reflection upon the importance of the website/collective transfeminismo.com as a networked counter-public to be inserted into a virtual public sphere and the role of anonymity in the fabrication of the transfeminist collective identity through cyberactivism.
