| Sumario: | This article presents an approach to the ways in which the bodies of those persons whose sexual and gender identities are not subject to the predominant heteronormative model are constructed within the local context of the city of Guayaquil. By means of concepts such as the performative, precariousness, and abjection proposed by Judith Butler, an attempt is made to explain the ways in which the bodies of those who subvert the dominant sex and gender systems have been excluded from the public space of a city that, at the beginning of the 21st century, began a process of ‘urban regeneration.’ In addition, the article demonstrates the way class and race differences have repercussions in the displacement of these identities by middle class men who identify themselves as gay.
