- Abstract
Body image is constituted by visual material concreteness, but also by the representation constructed and shared in the collective social imaginary, based on the socio-cultural significance historically attributed to the signifiers that make it up, such as skin color and the elements that denote gender, from a binary perspective. This text article the body as its object, to discuss how the image and the collective social imaginary, fed by socio-cultural elaborations and representations about visual and conceptual body images, cross the social relations of transvestites and trans women and black cis men. In the analyses, the concept of "control image" (COLLINS, 2019) was the fundamental theoretical-methodological tool for understanding how sociocultural meanings are attributed to their visual body images and their representations, which consign these subjects to subordinate positions and sometimes to abjection, bequeathing them to negative stereotypes that work to structure discrimination in interactions in the most diverse spaces of sociability and subordinate positions in the hierarchy of social inequalities, concealing social conditions constructed as natural and immutable.
