Abstract

The main objective of this article is to observe the predominant stance of people who approach cis-
heteronormativity and the conceptions of Christian religions regarding sexual and gender diversity in Brazilian territory via
their discourse. Public videos available on YouTube were used and the analysis was guided by Discourse Analysis.
Discussions were made about the categories: a. cis-heteronormativity: regulation of knowledge and practices; b. Christian
religions: presence in the media and politics; and c. LGBTQIAphobia and dissident subjectivities. Exclusively biological
characteristics were shown to still be able to define and determine people's modes of existence, disregarding gender, for
example, as a social construction.
