Resumo: | In this article we examine the visibilities, that are discursively produced, about the sexual identification of men in search of other men for affective-sexual interactions in dating apps. The analysis aims to discuss the “male/female” binary grammar reproduced online, which frames sexual visibilities and, with this, value men seen as males. We consider data produced from 2017 to 2021 in online research on user profiles of Grindr and Scruff – both found in online stores for mobile applications. Following Deleuze's observation about Michel Foucault's archaeological method, we consider, in the face of the problem related to homoaffective and gender relations, the focuses of power/resistance as enablers of the formation of the corpus that focused on the online dispute "male vs gay", observed in 580 prints of self-descriptions of users of the two apps. The reflections on the Foucauldian archaeological method and the Deleuzian considerations, which place sayabilities and visibilities as in constant reciprocal captures under a primacy of the enunciation, allowed us to understand how the valuations about subjects are configured to make them see, in their bodily functioning, the visibility of heterosexual virility. |

O objetivo da análise é construir problematizações a respeito da gramática binária “macho/fêmea” reproduzida online na busca por visibilidades sexuais que se enquadrem nesta gramática e, por sua vez, valorizem homens vistos como machos. Para isso, consideramos dados produzidos de 2017 a 2021 em pesquisa online em perfis de usuários do Grindr e do Scruff – ambos encontrados em lojas online de aplicativos para celulares. Seguindo a constatação de Deleuze sobre o método arqueológico de Michel Foucault, consideramos, diante do problema relativo às relações homoafetivas e de gêneros, os focos de poder/resistência como possibilitadores da formação do corpus que se centrou na disputa online “macho vs gay”, observada em 580 prints de autodescrições de usuários dos dois aplicativos. As reflexões acerca do método arqueológico foucaultiano e das considerações deleuzianas, que colocam dizibilidades e visibilidades como em constantes capturas recíprocas sob um primado do enunciado, nos possibilitaram compreender como se configura as valorizações a respeito de sujeitos que fazem ver, em seu funcionamento corporal, a visibilidade da macheza heterossexual.ANPOLL2022-09-06info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersiontextoapplication/pdfhttps://revistadaanpoll.emnuvens.com.br/revista/article/view/177810.18309/ranpoll.v53i2.1778Revista da Anpoll; Vol. 53 No. 2 (2022): Por uma análise foucaultiana dos discursos; 250-265Revista da Anpoll; v. 53 n. 2 (2022): Por uma análise foucaultiana dos discursos; 250-2651982-78301414-756410.18309/ranpoll.v53i2reponame:Revista da ANPOLL (Online)instname:Associação Nacional de Pós-Graduação e Pesquisa em Letras e Lingüística (ANPOLL)instacron:ANPOLLporhttps://revistadaanpoll.emnuvens.com.br/revista/article/view/1778/1250Copyright (c) 2022 Revista da Anpollhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess Cardoso e Silva, Elivelto De Sousa, Katia Menezes2022-09-27T18:54:20Zoai:ojs.revistadaanpoll.emnuvens.com.br:article/1778Revistahttps://revistadaanpoll.emnuvens.com.br/revista/indexONGhttps://revistadaanpoll.emnuvens.com.br/revista/oairevistadaanpoll@gmail.com1982-78301414-7564opendoar:2023-01-13T09:49:00.913913Revista da ANPOLL (Online) - Associação Nacional de Pós-Graduação e Pesquisa em Letras e Lingüística (ANPOLL)false |
