Este problema ha llegado a la ficción: Fernanda Melchor aborda este tema en Temporada de huracanes (2017), donde la proliferación de los delitos de odio se convierte en el tema central. Este artículo realiza un estudio de la masculinidad y la figura del sujeto queer, analiza cómo este último influye en el comportamiento heterocentrado y revela las fisuras e identidades alternas ocultas por la hipermasculinidad. Este trabajo analiza los silencios, disonancias y comportamientos que desequilibran la masculinidad hegemónica, y, al mismo tiempo, explora cómo se usa la homofobia para mantener el control, lo que revela un problema social complejo que padecen los sujetos queer.Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú2024-12-11info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttp://revistas.pucp.edu.pe/index.php/lexis/article/view/30233Lexis; Vol. 48 No. 2 (2024); 950-985Lexis; Vol. 48 Núm. 2 (2024); 950-9850254-9239reponame:Revistas - Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perúinstname:Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perúinstacron:PUCPspahttp://revistas.pucp.edu.pe/index.php/lexis/article/view/30233/27173https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/302332024-12-21T19:51:01Z
