MIND THE GAP: MORALIDADES E QUESTÕES DE GÊNERO EM SEXUALIDADES DISSIDENTES

Abstract

This paper is the result of my master's research entitled "The interdicts of desire: an autoethnographic study of emotions in the relationships of domination and submission among BDSM practitioners", where I sought to analyze in an autoethnographic perspective and in the light of the anthropology of emotions, the relational model present in BDSM relationships (acronym for the words Bondage, Discipline, Domination, Submission, Sadism and Masochism) and their imbrications. In this paper I intend to present the paradox of an environment that is supposed to be libertarian, but whose processes of subjectivation are crossed by moralities and gender issues situated in cisheteronormative models.

 Key-words: Moralities. Gender. Dissident Sexualities.
