“Personalidades foscas”: sexualidade e roteiro em jovens universitários no Rio de Janeiro

Abstract

This dissertation proposes to reflect, under the aegis of anthropology of emotions and the theory of the scripting, in what way macrossocial aspects present in the literature on bisexuality can be examined in key scenes of the daily life of five young people. In first place, it proposes to make explicit some discourses present in the theoretical field on bisexuality, with the intention of identifying some issues related to visibility and social erasure. Next, we examine how binary notions such as masculine / feminine are present in the sexual scripts of young people. Finally, we examine the emotional grammars present in scenes where bisexuality has become a focus of attention, both for its exposure and for silencing.
