RESUMONos últimos anos, diferentes países como Brasil e Argentina têm incluído temas relacionados à sexualidade como conteúdo curricular, medida que abriu uma série de debates na agenda pública acerca do papel que deve cumprir a instituição escolar no tratamento de questões relacionadas com a sexualidade e o gênero. Esta problemática regional tem se manifestado de forma eloquente e a polêmica sobre este tema pôs em circulação expressões como “ideologia de gênero”, que marcam uma clara resistência a este tipo de medida. Assim, analisaremos os discursos que têm circulado sobre a educação sexual e focalizaremos nosso interesse, especificamente, nas controvérsias geradas em relação às questões de gênero. A análise dos esquemas argumentativos que apresentam esses discursos nos permitirá, por um lado, analisar as polêmicas surgidas em torno das noções de gênero na educação sexual e, por outro, comparar as regularidades e rupturas que aparecem nos dois países.Gênero.

This process has opened a series of debates on the public agenda about the role that the school institution should fulfill regarding matters related to sexuality and gender. This regional problem has manifested itself eloquently and, the controversy on this topic has put out expressions like “gender ideology”, that mark a clear resistance to this process. Thus, we will analyze the discourses that have been circulating about sex education and focus our interest, specifically, on the controversies generated in relation to gender issues. The analysis of the argumentative schemes that these speeches present will allow us, on the one hand, to analyze the controversies arising around the notions of gender in sexual education and, on the other hand, to compare the regularities and ruptures that appear in both countries.Gender.

Questo problema regionale si è manifestato eloquentemente e la controversia su questo tema ha messo in circolazione espressioni come "ideologia di genere", che segnano una chiara resistenza a questo tipo di misura. Pertanto, analizzeremo i discorsi circolanti sull'educazione sessuale e focalizzeremo il nostro interesse, in particolare, sulle controversie generate in relazione alle questioni di genere. L'analisi degli schemi argomentativi presentati da questi discorsi ci permetterà, da un lato, di analizzare le controversie sorte intorno alle nozioni di genere nell'educazione sessuale e, dall'altro, di confrontare le regolarità e le rotture che compaiono in entrambi i paesi.Genere.

Using interview data on LGBT young people’s policing experiences, I argue policing and security works as a program of government (Dean 1999; Foucault 1991; Rose 1999) that constrains the visibilities of diverse sexuality and gender in public spaces. While young people narrated police actions as discriminatory, the interactions were complex and multi-faceted with police and security working to subtly constrain the public visibilities of ‘queerness’. Same sex affection, for instance, was visibly yet unverifiably (Mason 2002) regulated by police as a method of governing the boundaries of proper gender and sexuality in public. The paper concludes by noting how the visibility of police interactions with LGBT young people demonstrates to the public that public spaces are, and should remain, heterosexual spaces.

As histórias estão presentes nos espaços escolares da infância e contribuem na construção da criança, de suas sensibilidades e subjetividades. As narrativas digitais, que possibilitam a relação entre história e tecnologias digitais, podem contribuir na inserção das Tecnologias Digitais na escola e em propostas em educação sexual. Objetiva-se, neste artigo, refletir sobre esse recurso como possibilidade pedagógica na problematização do gênero e sexualidade com a infância. Para isso, são apresentadas algumas reflexões sobre histórias e narrativas, assim como uma revisão de literatura, resultante de uma metodologia de pesquisa bibliográfica às bases de dados de Educação, sobre o uso das narrativas digitais em contextos educativos e também em educação sexual, sexualidade e gênero. Reflete-se também sobre limites e possibilidades desse recurso nas temáticas em discussão e mostra-se um cenário de aprendizagem que clarifica e objetiva a proposição das narrativas digitais nessas temáticas. Dessa forma, compreende-se a importância da busca por novas propostas pedagógicas de educação sexual com crianças, incluindo contribuições das tecnologias digitais nesse processo. Digital storytelling in childhood sexuality education: possibilities and limitations AbstractThe stories are present in kindergarten and contribute to the construction of the child, his/her sensibilities and subjectivities. The digital narratives that enable relationships between stories and digital technologies, can contribute to the integration of digital technologies in schools and to the rise of new proposals on sex education. We aim to reflect on this feature as a learning possibility to the problematization of gender and sexuality with children. Therefore, we present some reflections about stories and narratives, as well as a literature review, resulting from a bibliographical research methodology to databases of Education, on the use of digital storytelling in educational contexts as well as in sex education, specifically sexuality and gender. We also reflect about the limits and possibilities of storytelling in sex education and present a learning scenario that clarifies and concretizes the proposition of digital storytelling in these themes. We understand the importance of the search for new educational proposals for children’s sex education, including the contributions of digital technologies in the process.Keywords: Sexuality.

Abstract Few in the humanities and social sciences will doubt the long-standing historical conflation of sex, sexuality and gender both within and without academia. Despite research and socio-political movements aiming for the contrary, it continues even now. This paper discusses the ongoing conflation between these interrelated but independent social categories in current linguistic research, including how it can serve to reflect and reinforce socio-political antagonism outside of academia. I propose two potential directions of travel: (1) welcoming ideological pluralism between scholars on the primacy of either sex, gender or sexuality; and (2) horizontally disaggregating the three categories. I argue that engaging with both strategies in tandem serves to benefit researchers, participants and the public. The former encourages trust in academic research during a time wherein that trust is waning. The latter enables an analytical distinction between sex, gender, and sexuality in linguistic research, whilst continuing to acknowledge their interrelatedness. Implemented together, they will allow researchers to embed research in the 21st century, which entails pluralistic and competing socio-political activism between equally deserving groups.

The introduction first sets out some preliminary definitions of sex, sexuality, and gender. It then turns from the sexual part of Sexual Identities to the identity part. A great deal of confusion results from failing to distinguish between identity in the sense of a category with which one identifies (categorial identity) and identity in the sense of a set of patterns that characterize one’s cognition, emotion, and behavior (practical identity). The second section gives a brief summary of this difference. The third and fourth sections sketch the relation of the book to social constructionism and queer theory, on the one hand, and evolutionary-cognitive approaches to sex, sexuality, and gender, on the other. The fifth section outlines the value of literature in not only illustrating, but advancing a research program in sex, sexuality, and gender identity. Finally, the introduction provides an overview of the chapters in this volume.

The Dame Eileen Younghusband Lecture is presented every two years at the joint world conferences of international social work. In 2016 it was presented in Seoul and was based on the conference theme ‘promoting the dignity and worth of people’. The lecture includes a review of heroes, legal, political and social successes, and challenges for sexual and gender minorities around the world. It challenges the binary of gender and sexuality. The privilege of social work is to choose either to challenge or to reproduce oppression based on sexuality and gender, and protect the dignity and worth of all peoples.

Cour De Justice

The notion that queer theory and feminism are inevitably in tension with one another has been well developed both by queer and feminist theorists. Queer theorists have critiqued feminist theories for being anti-sex, overly moralistic, essentialist, and statist. Feminist theorists have rejected queer theory as being uncritically pro-sex and dangerously protective of the private sphere. Unfortunately these reductionist accounts of what constitutes a plethora of diverse, eclectic and overlapping theoretical approaches to issues of sex, gender, and sexuality, often fail to account for the circumstances where these methodological approaches converge on legal projects aimed at advancing the complex justice interests of women and sexual minorities. A recent decision from the Ontario Court of Justice addressing a three-parent family law dispute involving gay and lesbian litigants demonstrates why recognition of the convergences between feminist and queer legal theories can advance both queer and feminist justice projects. The objective of this article is to demonstrate, through different and converging interpretations of this case that draw on some of the theoretical insights offered in a new anthology called Feminist and Queer Legal Theory, one rather straight-forward claim. The claim advanced here is that activists, advocates, litigants and judges are all well served by approaching complex legal problems involving sex, sexuality and gender with as many “methods” for pursuing and achieving justice as possible.La notion que la théorie homosexuelle et le féminisme sont inévitablement en conflit l’un avec l’autre a été bien développée à la fois par les théoriciens et théoriciennes homosexuels et féministes. Les théoriciens et théoriciennes homosexuels ont critiqué les théories féministes les qualifiant d’être anti-sexe, trop moralistes, essentialistes et étatistes. Les théoriciens et théoriciennes féministes ont rejeté la théorie homosexuelle la qualifiant d’être pro-sexe sans esprit critique et dangereusement protectrice du domaine privé. Malheureusement, ces descriptions réductionnistes de ce qui constitue une pléthore d’approches théoriques aux questions de sexe, de genre et de sexualité qui sont diverses, éclectiques et qui se chevauchent manquent fréquemment de tenir compte de circonstances où ces approches méthodologiques convergent sur des projets légaux visant à faire avancer les intérêts juridiques complexes des femmes et des minorités sexuelles. Une décision récente de la Cour de justice de l’Ontario portant sur un litige en droit de la famille entre trois parents et impliquant des parties homosexuelles et lesbiennes démontre pourquoi la reconnaissance des convergences entre les théories juridiques féministes et homosexuelles peut faire avancer à la fois les projets légaux homosexuels et féministes. Le but de cet article n’est pas de suggérer qu’une seule «théorie juridique féministe homosexuelle» convergente soit possible, ou même désirable. Plutôt, le but est de démontrer, par le biais d’interprétations différentes et convergentes de ce cas qui s’inspirent de certaines intuitions théoriques présentées dans une nouvelle anthologie intitulée Feminist and Queer Legal Theory, une proposition assez simple. La proposition avancée ici est que les activistes, les avocats, les parties à un litige et les juges sont tous bien servis en abordant des problèmes légaux complexes au sujet de sexe, de sexualité et de genre avec autant de «méthodes» que possible pour considérer la justice dans tous ses détails.

And Gender

Queer media is not one thing but an ensemble of at least four moving variables: history, gender and sexuality, geography, and medium. Although many scholars would pinpoint the early 1990s as marking the emergence of a cinematic movement in the United States (dubbed by B. Ruby Rich the “new queer cinema”), films and television programs that clearly spoke to LGBTQ themes and viewers existed at many different historical moments and in many different forms: cross-dressing, same-sex attraction, comedic drag performance; at some points, for example, in 1950s television, these were not undercurrents but very prominent aspects of mainstream cultural production. Addressing “history” not as dots on a progressive spectrum but as an uneven story of struggle, the writers in this volume stress that queer cinema did not appear miraculously at one moment but arrived on currents throughout the century-long history of the medium. Likewise, while queer is an Anglophone term that has been widely circulated, it by no means names a unified or complete spectrum of sexuality and gender identity, just as the LGBTQ+ alphabet soup struggles to contain the distinctive histories, politics, and cultural productions of trans artists and genderqueer practices. Across the globe, media-makers have interrogated identity and desire through the medium of cinema through rubrics that sometimes vigorously oppose the Western embrace of the pejorative term queer, foregrounding instead indigenous genders and sexualities or those forged in the Global South or those seeking alternative epistemologies. Finally, though “cinema” is in our title, many scholars in this collection see this term as an encompassing one, referencing cinema and media in a convergent digital environment. The lively and dynamic conversations introduced here aspire to sustain further reflection as “queer cinema” shifts into new configurations.

This chapter analyzes a series of questions related to citizen's attitudes about gender issues. These items are included in the 2006 Pilot Study. The examination of gender stereotypes suggests that many people see few differences in the traits and abilities of women and men, but that those who do perceive differences tend to do so in predictable ways. These new items also demonstrate that gender stereotypes transcend party, although gender and party interact in meaningful ways in some circumstances. The examination of voters' gender preferences for elected officials reveal the importance (or lack thereof) of descriptive representation to voters and the potential for women candidates to mobilize women in the public to greater political involvement. Finally, the analysis of these new items clearly indicates that while they are related to other gender attitudes, gender stereotypes and gender preferences are distinct attitudes held by voters.

This chapter undertakes a treatment of the rhetoric of personal pronouns in Ginzburg's writings on love and sexuality, drawing on Michael Lucey's study of the first person in twentieth-century French literature about love. It brings together questions of genre and narrative, on the one hand, and gender and sexuality, on the other. The chapter is divided into two sections, treating writings from two different periods on two kinds of love Ginzburg thought typical of intellectuals: in “First Love,” it discusses the unrequited and tragic love depicted in Ginzburg's teenage diaries (1920–23); in “Second Love,” it analyzes the love that is realized but in the end equally tragic, depicted in drafts related to Home and the World (1930s). The chapter examines the models the author sought in literary, psychological, and philosophical texts (Weininger, Kraft-Ebbing, Blok, Shklovsky, Oleinikov, Hemingway, and Proust).
