From the analysis of a class register in which Abelardo Castillo's story "The Faggot" was read, multiple questions arise regarding sex-gender categories and historically constructed male and female roles. At the same time, from an ethnographic approach with a gender perspective, we seek to reflect on the institutional space, the corporeality, the use of language, the forms of resistance through parody, the norms of corporal and subjective control and the link between the teacher and the students who are the protagonists of the experience. Finally, it points out the potential of literature to develop debates around these themes. |
