Trabajo y transexualidad: estrategias de afrontamiento

The following research, aims to identify the barriers that cross three transsexual people to enter the world of work. Therefore, in the present research will develop concepts such as transsexuality, social stigmatization, work, job discrimination, and finally the barriers they face. To carry out this research, a collection of information was done, based on bibliographical reviews and with the participation of three trans people, allowing to identify what are the main barriers to face, based on social stigmatization, which is justified by cultural patterns, but in turn, such barriers constitute an opportunity in some cases for the trans people to develop strategies of coping with exclusion. It was evident throughout the work that, indeed some of the stigmatizations infer in the creation of labor barriers, because as mentioned by the participants of the project, if a person listens to a trans imagines that is the worst, this gives way to create barriers that make it difficult for trans students to work, but they also emphasize in their speech that one of the coping strategies is to prepare academically by expanding their study curriculum, getting closer to the people so that they know them, and understand that being trans is not synonymous with being sick, and also, to demonstrate that the identity and orientation does not infer in the capacities and aptitudes of a person at work and in his life in general.
