Thresholds: The Production of Difference in Non-Binary Bodies and the Use of Affirmative Action for Trans People

This article analyzes the implementation of quotas for trans people in Brazil, focusing on non-binary identities. The research revealed that 22 public universities have trans quotas, with an average of 2.3% of vacancies. Legal security, however, is questioned by the lack of specific legislation. There are risks in judicializing legislative omission, such as the depoliticization of social conflicts and the relativization of gender self-determination by the judiciary. There is a gap, as only 7 of the 22 universities explicitly include non-binary people. Although self-declaration is universal, anti-fraud methods are analogous to those used in racial quotas. Universities fail to recognize transphobia as an autonomous protection factor, requiring proof of other vulnerabilities. The assimilation of binary identities erases differences precisely when it promises inclusion for trans people. It is concluded that the objective of trans quotas is to combat vulnerability to exosexism, and the refusal of the quota should never mean an invalidation of the self-declared identity.
