ABSTRACT
This research deals with the LGBT Filipino migrant domestic workers in Hong Kong. The legal frameworks defined to regulate their working and living conditions reduce their everyday spaces and possibilities of self-representation to a limited minimum. Furthering this precarity, they deal with homophobia, discrimination, and exploitation. This chapter focusses on the trans-identities and trans-spaces in Hong Kong, to research the potential of architecture as a multi-scalar, temporary, iterative, and collective act that is created by the agency of solidarity among LGBT migrant domestic workers, to resist the politics of oppression and segregation.
