Masculinities, Lesbian, BodiesAbstract
We intend to explore the idea of the meeting as ethnographical, having as locus of the fieldwork the scenes of performative acts played by the lesbian women of Cassandra Rios work. In such scenes peer up utterances about lesbian women’s bodies, and then it is observed how the proliferation of genres among them breaks up with the dichotomy of man and woman, to the time when we see the tensions and ambiguities experienced by lesbian women that re-signify the masculinities in their bodies, announcing thus a border area with the “trans”/“trans man”.Downloads
