Afetações da religião em uma pesquisa sobre masculinidades

Abstract

This article seeks to problematize affectations of religion in a research on the theme of masculinities. For this, theorizations of deconstruction, différance, performativity and intersectionality are mobilized, in texts by Jacques Derrida, Judith Butler, Sirma Bilge, among others, as well as the production of narratives with the subjects through the dialogic notion of narrative by Leonor Arfuch . Among the results, the young participants pointed out the disputes that occur within evangelical churches for the attempt to control and regulate non-heterosexual masculinities in their spaces. The discourses of religion were meant by the attempt to stabilize a specific way of being a man in society, that is, in the demarcated experience of heterosexual masculinity as the norm of the project instituted by the churches.
