Resumo: Stimulated by the emergence of portable and accessible devices such as smartphones equipped with digital cameras, the contemporary subject accesses and creates content autonomously, motivated, at first, by the malleability and immediacy of these new technological devices. Since the old ways of creating media products prioritized only portraying traditionalist patterns and made the existence of transgender or transactivism invisible, an independent movement emerges, within social networks, which through images and texts, will legitimize the transgender presence in social life.

Through the use of Netnography, the research resulted in the observation of two personalities of relevance on the platform, and from this cut, it was found that the need to occupy these online spaces lies in the desire to inspire their followers to assume their identity. gender and fight for survival also outside the Internet.

Visto que os antigos modos de se criar produtos midiáticos priorizavam apenas retratar padrões tradicionalistas e invisibilizavam a existência da transgeneridade ou do transativismo, surge um movimento independente, dentro das redes sociais, que através de imagens e textos, vai legitimar a presença transgênero no convívio social. Esse estudo objetivou traçar um panorama da quantidade de perfis que atualmente abordam tais questões, dentro do Instagram, e que encontram-se produzindo para este público específico. Através do uso da Netnografia, a pesquisa resultou na observação de duas personalidades de relevância na plataforma, e a partir deste recorte, constatou-se que a necessidade de ocupação desses espaços on-line reside no desejo de inspirar seus seguidores a assumirem suas identidades de gênero e lutarem por sobrevivência também fora da Internet.Universidade Federal de Viçosa - UFV2020-11-30info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufv.br/reves/article/view/1039410.18540/revesvl3iss4pp09001-09011REVES - Revista Relações Sociais; Vol. 3 No. 4 (2020); 09001-09011REVES - Revista Relações Sociais; Vol. 3 Núm. 4 (2020); 09001-09011REVES - Revista Relações Sociais; v. 3 n. 4 (2020); 09001-090112595-4490reponame:REVES - Revista Relações Sociaisinstname:Universidade Federal de Viçosa (UFV)instacron:UFVporhttps://periodicos.ufv.br/reves/article/view/10394/6199Copyright (c) 2020 REVES - Revista Relações Sociaishttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSilva, Luciola Carla Correia2020-12-23T23:06:30Zoai:ojs.periodicos.ufv.br:article/10394Revistahttps://periodicos.ufv.br/reves/PUBhttps://periodicos.ufv.br/reves/oaireves.journal@ufv.br||2595-44902595-4490opendoar:2020-12-23T23:06:30REVES - Revista Relações Sociais - Universidade Federal de Viçosa (UFV)false
