Abstract

The proposal to identify perceptions
and contradictions that structure the
discursive action that disputes meanings around the body, gender and sexuality, based on conceptual references from the Queer Theory. Through observation of the gay digital activism pages, we highlight three central axes that organize
the political agenda of disputes, the
confrontations, the contradictions and the constitution of the speeches that normalize and hierarchize bodies marked by genders that face the compulsory triad sex-gender-desire.
