Sumario:Based on the dossier in the 39th issue of Iconos, ¿How is ´queer´ thought of in Latin America?, this article analyzes the central points and the questions raised by each of the articles making up the dossier. It emphasized the criticism of hegemonic masculinity based on a notion of alterity in which categories of class, ethnicity, gender and age converge. In reflecting on these points, this article reviews each of the works, contextualizing them within a radical critique of a heteronormative system.
