Abstract
This article aims to analyze the extent to which transgender women can be legally recognized as victims in cases of femicide. The legal justification succeeds in the possibility of guaranteeing transgender women the effectiveness of the legal and social rights of transsexuals in the Brazilian legal system. The distinction and understanding of gender, sex and sexuality is essential to reveal the applicability of the feminicide qualifier to transgender victims who have been facing a doctrinal position that does not recognize them as possible victims of the qualifier, violating the principle of human dignity. Research carried out through bibliographic exploratory methodology, as well as data collection, with the intention of verifying the legitimacy of transgender women in appearing as a passive subject in the crime typified in art. 121 of the Penal Code.
