Resumen
HERNANDEZ-SILVANO, Amadeo; MARCIAL ZAVALA, Rogelio Ernesto y MORENO MUNOZ., Manuel Alejandro. Antsiwinik. Expressing One’s Homosexuality in an Indigenous High School. LiminaR [online]. 2020, vol.18, n.1, pp.129-141. Epub 15-Mayo-2020. ISSN 2007-8900. https://doi.org/10.29043/liminar.v18i1.724.
This article outlines ethnographic research conducted between 2016 and 2018, and offers an approach to what could be called homosexual identities in indigenous contexts, specifically in a secondary school located in an ejido of Ocosingo, Chiapas. It analyzes conflictive situations in the lives of three students who have come out as antsiwiniketik [women-men] in terms of their relationships with their classmates and with adults inside and outside the school. For the analysis, I review theoretical contributions and concepts such as power struggles, heteronormativity, sex gender system, gender studies, queer theory, and interculturality.
