Summary/Abstract: Transfeminist theory makes it possible to think about trans coalitions beyond the alliance formed within the LGB(T) movement. As many authors argue, transfeminism can provide a bridge between feminist and trans politics. However, visions of this coalition vary depending on both their location and the specific author. Since the term “transfeminism” is not widely used in Poland, the purpose of this article is not only to present major transfeminist texts and authors, but also to structure the application of the term and outline its history. The key organizing question of the article, however, is what projects are being formulated within the framework of transfeminist politics and how do they draw a vision of a transfeminist coalition? Since transfeminism is widely considered to be part of third-wave feminism, the article also aims to identify places where transfeminist theory enters into dialogue (and sometimes conflicts) with feminist theory.
