Queermeras: O Emergir de Identidades Monstruosas Através do Abandono

Abstract

This study focuses on the critique of exclusion and resistance dynamics faced by marginalized identities, with an emphasis on queer and non-binary identities. It aims to understand how these identities transform experiences of marginalization into forms of political contestation and the articulation of new communities. The central hypothesis suggests that queer and non-binary subjects, by rejecting binary gender norms, constitute expressions of political resistance that challenge hegemonic norms of power and gender. The methodology involves a critical analysis of the works of Giorgio Agamben, Judith Butler, and Paul B. Preciado, focusing on concepts such as bare life, performativity, passability, countersexuality, and dysphoria to examine mechanisms of exclusion and strategies of resistance. The findings indicate that the abandonment imposed on these divergent bodies strategically positions them to subvert norms, enabling the creation of collectivities that break away from hegemonic standards and expand identity and political possibilities.
