Medical appointments, surgeries and broken families: Transnormativity in the Czech docusoap series 'In a Different Body'
Original language description
This article aims to analyse the media representation of trans* people in a nonanglophoneenvironment, specifically on the example of a docusoap series producedby Czech Television, V jiném těle ('In a Different Body') (2022). Using the theoreticalframework of 'transnormativity' and related concepts such as medicalizationand the 'born/trapped in the wrong body trope', we analyse the narrativestrategies and production and post-production practices present in the programmein question, which discursively set limits to the ways in which the participantscould express themselves and how both they, and trans* identity in general,are presented to the audience. In particular, the findings of the study includethe extreme medicalization of trans* identity and the significant tailoring of itsexpression to the cis viewers, resulting in highly stereotypical and transnormativeportrayals of trans* people.
