Life history interviews were carried out with travesti and trans femininities residing in the northwest of Greater Buenos Aires. These life stories were analyzed, using Law No. 26,743 on Gender Identity (LIG), enacted in 2012, as a turning point in travesti and trans trajectories. This article focuses on one of the milestones of these trajectories: the search for a travestite and trans identity reference framework. Drawing on the notion of generation as a category of experience, two generations will be identified based on the historical moment in which travestite socialization took place: Pre-LIG and Post-LIG. The aim is to describe this search for identity construction for each generation, outlining the ruptures and continuities for both historical moments. Este trabajo expone resultados de una tesis de maestría, para la que se llevó a cabo trabajo de campo durante el período 2020-2021. Se realizaron entrevistas de historias de vida a feminidades travestis y trans que residen en el noroeste del Conurbano Bonaerense. Se analizaron dichos relatos de vida, tomando a la Ley de Identidad de Género N° 26.743 (LIG) sancionada en 2012 como punto de quiebre en las trayectorias travestis y trans. Este artículo se centra en uno de los hitos de dichas trayectorias: la búsqueda de un marco de referencia identitario travesti y trans. Apoyándose en la noción de generación como categoría de vivencia, se identificarán dos generaciones, según el momento histórico en el que se llevó a cabo la socialización travesti: la Pre LIG y la Pos LIG. Se intentará describir dicha búsqueda de construcción identitaria para cada generación y se trazarán las rupturas y las continuidades para ambos momentos históricos. Universidad Nacional de Rosario.
