Abstract

PRADO, Vagner Matias do. Between queerpos and speeches: standardization of conducts, homosexualities and homophobia in the practices of School Physical Education. Práxis Educativa [online]. 2017, vol.12, n.2, pp.501-519. ISSN 1809-4309.  https://doi.org/10.5212/PraxEduc.v.12i2.0012.

Anchored in the queers studies, this article aims to discuss the tagging social process standardization of conducts, repudiation of homosexuality and construction of homophobia through some school practices of Physical Education. From reports generated by semi-structured interviews, it was possible to infer that, from the curriculum, sports are mobilized for the construction and maintenance of a representation of masculinity that subjugates and ranks other expressions of existence. In this relational game, students who do not fit (or will not fit) to the hegemonic models are targets of constant derogatory demarcations, which aim to establish a difference that “is read” socially as “abnormal”.

Keywords : School Physical Education; Homosexualities; Queer Theory.
