A luta para “existir-resistir” nos tempos da ditadura brasileira:

embates da homossexualidade masculina na universidade. Chegamos ao fim? (!)

Abstract

Abstract

This article echoes a male homosexual experience lived at the public university of Recife during the last military dictatorship established in Brazil. We take as theoretical inspiration current decolonial authors such as Iran Melo, Renan Quinalha and Sandro Sayão, who discuss disconcerting masculinities, outside the culturally established lines and a non-normative identity proposed by Judith Butler. The methodological path taken in the qualitative study was testimony, triggered through the self-report. The discourse of this personal memory is configured as a literature of resistance (Jacques Derrida), whose narrative was evoked by oral history (Michel Pollak). The male history of life as a homosexual man is described through the marks of social and cultural domination, exposed in the expressions, gay, flower, chicken, baitola, pederast and others

Keywords: University education, Homosexuality, Identity.
