Thus generating a discussion in the embodiment, looking for discussing discrimination and marginal spaces. The prison is presented as a space marginalized in the society where heinous bodies also inhabit both for the society of outside as inside, thus generating spaces injunctions to the transvestites which generate a paradox of desire to possess a female body in a male compound. The article discusses the problem of love, of the crimes, the illness and death, as well as the violence in the daily transvestites seen from the geographical analysis of the city and its symbols.
