Abstract

Non-binary population's claims have grown exponentially worldwide in the last few years, and there is a lack of critical studies in psychoanalysis regarding their singularities. Through concepts such as psychic bissexuality and identification, it is possible to approach psychoanalysis to gender studies of the queer, transfeminist and decolonial theories in order to develop dialogues that promote new interdisciplinary perspectives. It is an urgent ethical professional commitment to produce new theoretical-clinical tools in psychoanalysis.
