A "cultura do estupro" em Aline Bei e Douglas Stuart trauma e resistência numa perspectiva comparada

Abstract

The text approaches how two teenagers, Mungo (protagonist of Young Mungo) and the anonymous Character (protagonist of O peso do pássaro morto – The weight of the dead bird, in English) perceive the trauma of the rape they suffer. She languishes throughout her life and dies; he seeks strength to withstand the pain of rape and kills the two rapists. “Rape culture” as a practice of virile sexism requires constant questioning so that the societies that inherit these practices coexist without gender violence and do not cause pain and trauma in historically vulnerable people. This paper adopts the concept of violence, based on Freud (2011), Gomes (2013) and Misse (2016), in addition to hegemonic masculinity via Connel & Messerchmidt (2013).Literature seeks to initiate this discussion as another way of disseminating the encounter of plural genders.
