Historically, in psychiatry and psychoanalysis, the quality of individual sensitivity (how a human being feels him or herself) and that of visibility (how a human being displays him or herself and wants to appear) had taken different features. From time to time one of such features prevailed over the other. In this century, visibility prevails over sensitivity. The presentation of a clinical case of a transsexual woman stresses the possibility to oppose the power of visibility, giving room to the infantile feelings of the patient and the capacity of the analyst to receive them well utilizing her/his countertransference in psychoanalytic relationship. There are conservative positions, that stress the immutability (or, at most, the easy adaptability) of psychoanalytic categories, also when there are important social and cultural modifications, and, as it were, revolutionary positions, that maintain an atheoretical research of peculiar narratives, built by the analytic couple and not generalizable. Between them the author proposes a third position and he is on the same wavelength as Ruth Stein. The bricolage of different theoretical positions allows an increase of the analyst's capacity of observation and reflection. In that way, the analyst gets a relative, but significant reality, he can build in that moment of the analytic relation, with that patient.
