Discuss the concepts of the transexual world and explain it for the better undertanding of the matter. In Brazil, there are a lot of labels to characterize the transexuals beyond the usual male and female genders. The transexual women try to modify their bodies, biologically male bodies, into a women’s bodies through hormones and surjuries. Some of them keep their penises and others do the surjury to remove the genital. Without the psycological conditions to finish school most of them are thrown out of their houses so they opt for the prostitution in a way to have a income. Brazil is the country that kills more transexuals per capita around the world. Few of the transexuals get to 35 years old and a lot less get pass through that.
