Research in feminist trauma studies focused on insidious and embodied trauma has demonstrated numerous prospects for healing. In bridging these two fields of study through a socio-phenomenological lens, this paper shows how consciousness emerges in ways that facilitate the development of a type of bodily agency. Empirically, the paper examines whether trans and gnc people can use movement-based activities for healing, and how that healing occurs in particular spaces. In reflection of the impacts of insidious traumas on both the body and mind, this paper radically re-centers the body to consider the potential for healing through movement. Through an analysis of in-depth interviews with trans and gnc people on their engagement with movement-based activities, I argue that participation in movement, on one’s own terms, enables a practice of bodily freedom. Moving beyond constraint and regulation, bodily agency requires a degree of bodily awareness (consciousness) that can emerge through participating in movement-based activities in transcentered and “personally-public” spaces. These results show that movement-based activities support trans and gnc people in healing from the impacts of insidious traumas. These findings have empirical importance, exemplifying the power of fostering intentionality through movement practices, as well as theoretical implications for understanding dynamics of agency and constraint in processes of healing from embodied oppression outside of formal therapeutic landscapes. HEALING THROUGH EMBODIED ACTIVITY 2 Hegemonic ideologies of sex and gender are essentialized and constructed into binary categories. This “tyranny of gender” (Doan 2010:635) is embedded in the practices and spaces we engage in every day, perpetually constraining actions and bodily autonomy. Although the constraints of gender are implicated in everyone’s lives, this disproportionately effects trans and gender nonconforming people (Mizock and Lewis 2008). Transphobia and related violence— spanning prejudice, discrimination and overt interpersonal and structural violence—directly affects the body. Direct transphobic violence as well as more ‘insidious’ forms of discrimination can result in symptoms similar to those of PTSD (Root 1992). If the body is impacted by strict and constraining binary ideals of gender, how can the bodies of trans and gnc people be implicated in processes of healing? Healing through the body has been theoretically and empirically considered in feminist trauma studies and psychology. Engaging in formal therapeutic practices like Dance/Movement Therapy (D/MT) has been shown to provide positive outcomes for trans and gnc people; reducing gender dysphoria, increasing embodied awareness, and addressing how gender i","PeriodicalId":408890,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Trans Studies: Moving Toward Gender Expansion and Trans Hope","volume":"31 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129819047","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We provide a brief review of the extant literature, describe the English prison system and the regulations concerning transgender prisoners, and analyse two axes of vulnerability of TGNC prisoners: social (stemming from relationships between prisoners) and institutional (resulting from the prison regime). Along the social axes, we find, in contrast with prior research, that our respondents defied the stereotypes of trans prisoners as submissive to males in a hypermasculine prison society and as involved primarily in abusive relationships. Along the institutional axes, we find that, despite the progressive by international standards transgender prison regulations, prisoners were subject to vicissitudes in treatment that negatively affected their ability to express their gender and their health. Focusing on access to gender-affirming items (clothing, prosthetics, make-up) and gender-affirming medical treatment, we develop recommendations for the prison service that could improve the conditions of confinement for TGNC prisoners.","PeriodicalId":408890,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Trans Studies: Moving Toward Gender Expansion and Trans Hope","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114142038","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
