Otros cuerpos, otras sexualidades. Deconstrucción de identidades y género

Abstract

This research gives voice to those bodies that are not ruled by the imposed social standards: fat bodies, functional diverse bodies and transgender bodies. Identity deconstruction and body diversity enable a constant body and gender acknowledgement and resignification. Queer studies make new identities visible, recognize sexual dissent that overpasses boundaries and breaks every imposed paradigm. The research embarks upon a qualitative approach, queer studies and feminisms. It seeks to recover the body from the idealism it has been put down to as well as to resignfy the bodies that represent other feelings, other imaginaries, other corporealities, other ways to love, which widen the sexual perspectives and their inclusion. The most protruding results of this research come from the construction and deconstructions of the women interviewed, from the way they reclaim their desires, feelings and corporealities, from the way the fight for a constant deconstruction of gender binary and their sexuality. For that matter, they have to turn the body into an intervention, resistance and power place.
