“…Spanish TV has traditionally featured very few trans characters, and the few that have appeared have usually been portrayed in allusion to negative stereotypes, with a high presence of mockery, fear, alienation, and anger (Cobo-Durán and Otero-Escudero, 2021). However, the success of TV series such as Veneno (Calvo and Ambrossi, 2020), a biopic of a Spanish trans singer, actress and sex worker called Cristina Ortiz, and Todo lo Otro (Zamora, 2021), the first TV series created and produced by a trans woman, are leading to change in the representation of trans people (Cobo-Durán and Otero-Escudero, 2021;Higueras-Ruiz, 2023). Despite these advances, González- de-Garay et al (2022) highlights that in Spanish TV series trans women are usually portrayed in the narrative background, and as being less educated, more hypersexualized, of lower socio-economic status and more inclined towards unhealthy habits.…”
