“I Just Want to Study”: An Approach to the Exclusion/Inclusion of Trans People in Higher Education Institutions in Sonora, Mexico—Preliminary Results

2025-01-03T01:30:36+00:00

The objective was to explore university situations in which practices and attitudes of exclusion/inclusion are exercised toward trans people in Higher Education Institutions in Sonora, Mexico. We employed the focus group technique with 16 trans individuals from Sonora, and for the analysis, reflexive hermeneutics. The results reveal instances of exclusion/inclusion in situations such as roll call, bathroom use, university administrative procedures, invisibilization of non-binary individuals, pedagogical training, curriculum, moral panic, and access to cultural capital. It is concluded that these reflect the macrosocial reality of cisgenderism as a system of oppression; it is not only how, but also why and with what this exclusion is exercised. Simultaneously, inclusion emerges as a response championed by trans people as a political subject. This study demonstrates that only from this population can a legitimate subversion of the cisgenderist matrix perpetuating their exclusion arise.
