Os interditos do desejo: um estudo autoetnográfico das emoções nas relações de dominação e submissão entre praticantes de BDSM

Abstract

The dissertation aims to carry out an autoethnography about where the emotions stand in the relationships of domination and submission between BDSM practitioners (acronym for the words Bondage, Discipline, Domination, Submission, Sadism and Masochism) based on experiences in clubs in different cities in Brazil, as well as in online coexistence spaces. During the interactions and multiple experiments that I did, I sought to know the desires and emotions that engage subjects in these practices. However, the emotions that were unwanted and interdicted by the actors in the community caught my attention as a requirement to be part of that community. At the end of this research I hope to have contributed to a better understanding of emotions embodied in an unconventional relational structure from the self-knowledge of a self experiencing a new expression of sexuality.
