The authors conducted an ethnographic research with transgender persons in Santa Maria, Rio Grande do Sul State, Brazil, in 2012, using participant observation, semi-structured interviews, and following their everyday lives. These individuals invariably experienced physical and symbolic violence and the resulting distress, a condition they had to deal with in their careers and daily practices and tasks. The article discusses the violence experienced by transvestites (in the family, school, police precincts, and health services), specifically seeking to understand how such violence relates to their experiences with health services and how the latter respond.
2012年，作者在巴西南里奥格兰德州圣玛丽亚市对跨性别者进行了一项人种志研究，采用参与观察、半结构化访谈以及跟踪他们的日常生活。这些人无一例外地遭受了身体暴力和象征性暴力以及由此产生的痛苦，这是他们在职业、日常行为和任务中必须应对的状况。本文讨论了易装癖者（在家庭、学校、警察局和医疗服务机构中）所遭受的暴力，特别试图了解这种暴力与他们在医疗服务机构的经历有何关联，以及后者是如何做出回应的。
