Beyond dichotomic representations of gender and sexuality: figurations on the borders of religion in Northern Brazil

Abstract: Based on a psychosocial approach to figurations of gender and sexuality in a profane celebration within a religious procession in Northern Brazil, this articles introduces inscriptions and readings as a strategy to address the limits and possibilities that we produce or expand when thinking about men and masculinities from a non-dichotomous perspective, concerned less about observing the obvious, and rather with exploring the instertices of imagination.

摘要：本研究基于心理社会学视角，针对巴西北部一场宗教游行中的世俗庆典场景，剖析其中的性别与性的社会构型。本文提出"铭刻"与"解读"作为研究策略，用以探讨我们以非二分视角审视男性与男子气概时所生成或拓展的认知边界与可能性空间；相较于关注显而易见的表象，本文更着力于探索想象的缝隙地带。
