Sumario:This paper emerge from a learning process built in conjunction with several transgender women who worked in the sex trade on different occasions in the capital of San José Costa Rica during the 70's and 80's. It is an effort to map the life experiences of these women around the practices and dynamics of expulsion and violence to which they were subjected in those decades for engaging in sex work. Many of these life experiences highlight the bodily potential of these women to be able to resignify and build affective bonds within which they have developed their work for decades. From positions you would answer, in a context where the liberal and hetero-patriarchal regime is the hegemonic norm. The intention of this text is to reflect on the production and reproduction of common spaces or of affective accumulation that have been analyzed in an emergent way during the investigative process of the project registered in the Center for Research in Culture and Development (CICDE), of the vice-rectory of Research from the State Distance University (UNED) in Costa Rica under the name of: ¨Bodies and untamed territories: Josefina dissident cartography¨.
