Hiding My Candy merupakan sebuah novel yang merepresentasikan upaya kebertahanan transgender yang dilakukan oleh tokoh The Doll. Adapun pendekatan yang akan digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah teori Camp oleh Moe Meyer. Dalambuku the Politics and Poetics of Camp, Moe Meyer mendefinisikan istilah Camp sebagai total keseluruhan praktik dan strategi untuk menunjukkan identitas queer kaum marjinal, dalam hal ini transgender, kepada masyarakat (visibilitas sosial). Lazimnya, masyarakat heteronormatif menganggap transgender sebagai liyan sehingga keberadaan mereka seringkali terpinggirkan. Maka, tujuan dari penerapan strategi Camp adalah untuk menjamin kebertahanan kaum transgender dalam masyarakat. Muatan kritik terhadap heteronormativitas juga tampak nyata dalam penerapan strategi Camp . Sasaran kritik tersebut adalah pemapanan konstruksi gender normatif serta eksklusifitas kaum heteroseksual yang menjadikan kaum marginal seperti transgender tersisihkan. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian ditemukan bahwa bentuk-bentuk strategi Camp dapat dirinci sebagai berikut; strategi parodi Camp, strategi humor Camp, strategy of posing (kostum, gestur dan gaya bicara) serta strategi hidup dalam pertunjukkan.Penerapan strategi Camp tersebut ditujukan sebagai upaya untuk meraih kebertahanan transgender. Selanjutnya, kebertahanan transgender dapat dicerminkan melalui visibilitas sosial, terbentuknya wacana normalitas alternatif dan pemberdayaan transgende
