Sumario:In this paper we discuss the role of organizations in the reinforcement of discriminatory practices, as well we reflect about the evolvement and reaction of minorities who suffer discrimination. Symbolic violence is one of the cruelest forms of segregation and discrimination, even more when it is masked through “good intentions”. In this study we have analyzed the installation of LGBTs’ bathrooms in a block of a samba school, in an agricultural fair, and in a high school. We based our discussion on Augé’s concept of non-place (1994), as exclusive and neutral spaces, although this neutrality is not perceived in social dynamics. Conclusions suggest that non- places are just ideal places, where not even bathrooms elude of symbolic dynamics that are, also, surrounded and imbricated in social relations.
