Abstract

ABSTRACT

Sustained as a remnant of the model of patriarchal family, domestic violence was responsible for the sad and persistent struggle of Maria da Penha Maia Fernandes against the Brazilian State, searching for justice. In 2006, finally entered into force the Law 11.340, giving protection to the genus socially vulnerable, the feminine.

KEYWORDS: Domestic Violence. Gender. Transgender. Transvestite.
