Resumen
GUERRERO MC MANUS, Siobhan. Transgenderism and Transracialism: Ontological Contrasts between Gender and Race. Diánoia [online]. 2019, vol.64, n.82, pp.3-30. Epub 12-Mayo-2020. ISSN 0185-2450. https://doi.org/10.22201/iifs.18704913e.2019.82.1633.
In early 2017 Rebecca Tuvel published a paper entitled In Defense of Transracialism; this text claimed that the available reasons supporting transgenderism/transsexualism should lead us to accept transracialism as a possibility, given that both the ontologies of race and gender share two fundamental elements: self-identification and a third-party labeling. In this paper the validity of this extrapolation is disputed in light of the metaphysical and political shortcomings it implies by disregarding the historicity and materiality of these categories. Hence, the critical tone of this paper when discussing a certain tendency to homologize a diversity of social ontologies, on the one hand, and, on the other hand, the emphasis on different metaphysical analyses wherein these limitations don’t seem to rise.
