  • Junho-2021-Mes-Do-Orgulho-LGBTQI
    Para compreender o movimento e sua sigla é fundamental, antes de mais nada, entender a diferença entre orientação sexual e identidade de gênero. A orientação sexual das pessoas, com quem elas se relacionam sexualmente – homem, mulher ou os dois –, não tem uma relação necessária com o seu gênero. Identidade de gênero diz respeito a como as pessoas se percebem em relação ao seu gênero, se como homem, mulher ou nenhum dos dois. Cada letra da sigla LGBTQIA+ agrega um grupo de pessoas que se reconhece por uma orientação sexual ou uma identidade de gênero diversa daquelas que a sociedade convencionou como únicas (orientação heterossexual; gêneros masculino e feminino). Ela é a evolução de GLS (gays, lésbicas e simpatizantes), de GLBT (gays, lésbicas, bissexuais e transexuais) e LGBT. A retirada do “S” (que havia em GLS), de simpatizante, referindo-se a héteros que apoiavam a causa, deu-se pelo entendimento de que eles não eram protagonistas do movimento. Já a troca de posições entre o “G” e o “L” foi motivada para dar visibilidade às mulheres lésbicas e também promover equidade de gênero. Essas próprias mudanças na sigla – inserção de letra, retirada e reposicionamento – demonstram a evolução do movimento pela inclusão das pessoas em suas diferentes orientações sexuais e identidades de gênero. Antes de chegar às letras e aos seus significados, é importante frisar que reconhecer os grupos não tem a ver com rotulá-los, mas sim com reconhecê-los (na verdade, nos reconhecermos) na pluralidade, e como sujeitos dignos de direitos como qualquer cidadão e cidadã. As letras L, G e B designam as orientações sexuais Como se sabe, o L diz respeito às lésbicas e o G a gays, mulheres e homens, respectivamente, que sentem atração afetivo-sexual por pessoas do mesmo gênero que o seu; enquanto o B representa as pessoas bissexuais, que sentem atração afetivo-sexual por homens e mulheres.

  • (In)Visibilidade No Brasil Contemporâneo
    TANTAS PERFORMANCES, OUTRAS ERÓTICAS E SUA (IN)VISIBILIDADE NO BRASIL CONTEMPORÂNEO Miguel Rodrigues de Sousa Neto1 RESUMO: As eróticas e performances de gênero que destoaram/destoam daquelas moldadas pela heterossexualidade tornada compulsória têm sido historicamente subalternizadas. Compreender tal processo no Brasil contemporâneo mostra-se tarefa relevante para compreendermos a construção histórica das diferenças e os embates atuais da população formada por lésbicas, gays, bissexuais, travestis e transgêneros. PALAVRAS-CHAVE: Homossexualidades; LGBTfobia; Movimentos Sociais contemporâneos. ABSTRACT: As eróticas e performances de gênero que destoaram/destoam daquelas moldadas pela heterossexualidade tornada compulsória têm sido historicamente subalternizadas. Compreender tal processo no Brasil contemporâneo mostra-se tarefa relevante para compreendermos a construção histórica das diferenças e os embates atuais da população formada por lésbicas, gays, bissexuais, travestis e transgêneros. KEYWORDS: Homossexualidades; LGBTfobia; Movimentos Sociais contemporâneos. ESTRATÉGIAS E ASTÚCIAS NO MUNDO DA INVISIBILIDADE GAY Em 26 de abril de 1989, a revista Veja estampava em sua capa a matéria “Cazuza – uma vítima da Aids agoniza em praça pública”, trazendo a foto do rosto de Cazuza, esquálido em função do agravamento de seu estado de saúde em decorrência da presença do HIV em seu organismo. O tratamento dado pela revista ao ídolo do rock nacional que viria a falecer no início do ano seguinte foi alvo, à época, de inúmeras críticas. O que não se pode contrariar é que, na segunda metade dos anos 1980, a AIDS trouxe visibilidade aos homossexuais, levando, inclusive, que figuras célebres fossem retiradas “do armário” em razão da infecção pelo HIV. Retomaremos o tema mais adiante. O ano de 1995 foi paradigmático para os movimentos de afirmação gay e lésbico brasileiros.

  • “Brazil, Show Your Face!”: AIDS, Homosexuality, and Art in Post-Dictatorship Brazil1
    “Brazil, Show Your Face!”: AIDS, Homosexuality, and Art in Post-Dictatorship Brazil1 By Caroline C. Landau Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Arts In the Department of History at Brown University Thesis Advisor: James N. Green April 14, 2009 1 Cazuza, “Brasil,” Ideologia, Universal Music Group, 1988. My translation Acknowledgements Writing this thesis would not have been possible without the help, guidance, and support of many people. While in Brazil, I had the tremendous pleasure of getting to know the archivists at Associação Brasileira Interdisciplinar de AIDS (ABIA) in Rio de Janeiro, particularly Aline Lopes and Heloísa Souto, without whose help, patience, enthusiasm, goodwill, suggestions, and encyclopedic knowledge of AIDS in Brazil this thesis would never have come to fruition. Thank you also to Veriano Terto, Jr. from ABIA for agreeing to speak with me about AIDS grassroots organization in an interview in the fall of 2007. I am grateful to Dr. Vânia Mercer, who served as a sounding board for many of my questions and a font of sources on AIDS in Brazil in the early 1990s and presently. Thank you to Patricia Figueroa, who taught me the ins-and-outs of the Brown University library system early on in the research of this thesis. Thank you also to the Brown University Department of History for the stipend granted to thesis writers. Part of my research is owed to serendipity and luck. I count as one of my blessings the opportunity to have met Jacqueline Cantore, a longtime friend of Caio Fernando Abreu’s and former MTV executive in Brazil.

E nascem as estrelas... A transformação de artistas em ídolos de multidões é um fenômeno que acontece a partir da identificação do público com o imaginário construído para este representar uma personagem. Esse imaginário é criado por uma fusão de fatores que entrelaçados compõe a comunicação de um produto, nesse caso, um programa de televisão. Cenógrafos, redatores, figurinistas, fotógrafos e outros profissionais não menos importantes que estes citados são responsáveis pela criação e consequentemente pelo sucesso desse produto que é medido por meio da audiência e da popularidade. A interpretação, ou seja, a construção da perso- nagem pelo artista, assim como as histórias de suas vidas são influências significativas para o sucesso e a ascensão desse artista a ídolo de multidões.
