This paper analyzes gender conceptions present in the document “National Policy to Confront Violence against Women (2011)”, which proposes action guidelines to the confrontation against gender violence and the “Resolution of the Municipal Board of Education of Belo Horizonte n. 002 (2008)”, which proposes the insertion of transvestites and transsexuals in schools by means of the use of each person’s social name. The documentation analysis was fulfilled based on six categories; context of document production, institutional author membership; authenticity and document confiability; text nature; key concepts and textual internal logical. The documents reflect, however not without contradiction, the recent Brazilian history processes which search to achieve and claim a democratic and respectful society to the citizens rights. Although much advances in politics and gender had been made, a lot of binarisms concepts still crosses these public politics.
