Sumario:This article investigates the processes of creation of subjectivity, singularization and subversion engendered by the use of non-binary self-declared people of the hashtag #whatgenderqueerlookslike on Twitter. Through the articulation between studies on the digital media, Queer Theory and Deleuze and Guattari's theorizations about subjectivity, it was observed that there was an empowering appropriation of the social network by the non-binary subjects, who could manifest through the internet their rhizomatic subjectivity and singularization, as well as their subversions, within the performativity, that provoke tensions in the social patterns that define the linear connection between sex, gender and desire.
