SILVA, Valdeci Gonçalves da. A visibilidade do suposto passivo: uma atitude revolucionária do homossexual masculino. Rev. Mal-Estar Subj. [online]. 2007, vol.7, n.1, pp. 71-88. ISSN 1518-6148.

This present article is a bibliografical review about masculine homosexuality and its visibility. We had with base the reference of masculinity as a building factor, we searched to enter inside the intitutional and cultural mechanisms that foment the prejudice. In this context we say that the conduction homosexual passive is a revolutionary attitude, once the opposite of majority is heterosexual dominant and intolerant, this social actor lives his own singularity of desire homoerotic, in front of the public view, they have their grimace or female manners. The interest about this aspect was awaked by the sentence: "the hole of my ass is revolucionary" from the french Guy Hocquengheim (1993), that made an echo with the speakers of young michês whose anus virginity and mouth kiss seem to be preserved at all -, in the dissertation whose title is " Two edged knife" : perceptions about masculine bisexualitty in João Pessoa - P.B, by Valdeci Gonçalves da Silva, master in sociology at The Federal University in Paraíba, Brazil, 1999. The study appealed over the concepts by "stigma" by E. Goffman, "Slipering" by J. Derrida, "singularity" by F. Guattari, "strange" by Z. Bauman and others. Those in some ways and with right adaptations helped to better understand the contradictions and the disfigurement made in relation to homosexuality, in particular the "passive". An intriguing sexual conduction that is possibly due to the necessity of investigations, even in this beginning of century XXI, it is disciminated in an explicit way or veiled. Finally, we verified that the homofobic feeling is present in our "modern times" suscitating the reason of the thematic discussion proposed here.

Keywords : passive homosexual; stigma; strange; slipery; singularity.
