Abstract

We start from the transfeminist perspective which is understood as an articulation of both thought and social resistance that is able to integrate mobility between genders, corporalities and sexualities with the assumptions of feminist struggles to build alliances with non-hegemonic masculinities in order to create an reticulated organization implacable to the opposition between genders. We create a brief genealogy of what is meant by transfeminisms in different contexts for answering the questions: What kind of subjects and practices does the extreme sexist reinterpretation of neoliberalism create and what are its most evident social implications in Mexico?, how can transfeminism redirect and propose other models to create individuals who are not related to the dystopia of gore capitalism, nor hegemonic masculinity, or the neoliberal hyper-consumerism?
