GENDER AND SEXUALITY ISSUES IN THE EDUCATIONAL PUBLIC SPACE HAVING A DISCUSSION A DISCIPLINE OF RELIGIOUS EDUCATION IN RECIFE SCHOOLS. ETD - Educ. Temat. Digit.

This article, derived from the results of research of scientific initiation carried out at UFPE (2015-2016), this research, in turn, linked to a project contemplated by the CNPq Universal Call Notice (called nº 14/2013), aimed to examine the lines (RE) and representatives of the municipal and state education departments of the city of Recife on issues of gender and sexuality, intersecting this debate with the presence or not of a curricular component that addresses religions in the public school. Thus, we sought to understand how discursively meanings are built around the themes mentioned, highlighting the place that sexually marginalized women like lesbians, bisexuals and transsexuals occupy within the religious cosmologies worked on in the discipline in question. The treatment of the material, based on post-structuralist theoretical conceptions of gender and sexuality and a methodological examination supported by the French Discourse Analysis (AD), revealed the strong presence of a discourse that, instead of proposing dialogue about differences sexual orientation, opposes gender and sexuality content in RE classes, reinforcing stigmatizing and worrisome attitudes, especially in the present day when these discussions run the risk of not being cross-cutting themes in educational spaces.

Keywords : Gender; Sexuality; Religious Education in Schools Recife.
