Sumario:This article encourages a reflection from the socialization of the methodological proposal and the results left by the research/creation entitled: “On the Frontiers of Masculinity. Story of a Smudged Body”. It is a contribution to gender studies in its way to appreciate the body while proposing a narrative language that nourishes the construction of knowledge without departing from academic reflection. The interest in the masculinity issues and racism becomes more important if we look at the crises in our societies that emerge from social problems such as exclusion, inequality, sexism and segregation. Thinking about the role of man in society as well as the impact of the configuration of masculinity on bodies, is now a necessity that arises to face the multiple violence that affects our world. In this sense, Humanities are called to build social imaginaries and critical action spaces committed to humanity and life.
