The essay aims to make a theoretical analysis of the consequenses from violence and its constitution of the subject. With the background of vulnerability for transgendered bodies in prostitition the analysis consist of the discussing reasons for the problematic capability to exit prostitution safely while still being able to dream of a social future life, and further the essay attempt to contribute with a discussion of how the mechanics of violence has fatal impacts for these vulnerable bodies. Conclusively, I will adress the importance of a more poststructural understanding of repercussions of violence to be able to offer an adequate social support. With the basis of a queer perspective of the ontology of death, primarily based on Judith Butler and Martin Heidegger, I will suggest a more radical erotogenizing of the body to constitute itself rather than on the basis hegemonic conventions.
