Abstract

Currently, non-binary people still need to gain space, rights and recognition in society. With that in mind, in 2021 we created the Coletive Não Binárie PB to bring together voices of gender dissidents and thus build a political force. However, when reflecting on the elements that condition the subalternization of experiences that deviate from sex/gender norms, we realize that it is important to design an action that is also based on theoretical reflections. Therefore, this brief text, which includes elements linked to the theoretical essay and the experience report, was written with the aim of promoting reflection on the performance of social movements based on the idea of praxis, considering the context of our experience with Coletive Não Binárie PB. On a theoretical level, we ask ourselves about the conditions under which sex and gender are constructed in society, and this leads us to an action based on questioning the social norms that produce and hierarchize differences.
