RANGEL BERNAL, Laura. Production of discourses on sexuality in schools and heteronormativity: The case of a Biology teacher. Revista Col. San Luis [online]. 2018, vol.8, n.15, pp.269-290. ISSN 2007-8846.

This research was aimed at studying the discourse on sexuality, a professor of biology at the secondary level. The methodology used was the case study and analysis of interviews and classroom observations with tools of the approach of Critical Discourse Analysis. The originality of the research lies in the fact that it addresses the discourses on sexuality in the schools of basic education, which in Mexico, are set by the curriculum guidelines even though they are the teachers who move these contents to the classroom and produce speeches in interaction with their students, hence the importance of investigating how do and what resources they use. The main finding is that in the discourse converge diverse approaches to sexuality which tend to naturalize heterosexuality regulations, frameworks and institutions. In addition, the speech of the teacher emphasizes the moral character of the forms of social regulation imposed on adolescent sexuality, which restrict the exercise of the latter and hamper the recognition of this population group as a subject of sexual rights. The limitations derived from the methodology used, so that the results can lead to a theoretical generalization, it is necessary to make a multiple case study, which for various reasons could not be carried out. As a conclusion, it was discussed the implications of the findings and future lines of research.
