Iglesias y grupos espirituales para la diversidad sexual y de género en México: intersecciones sobre religión y género

Abstract

Churches and spiritual groups for sexual and gender diversity has won a place in the religious field and, at the same time, has become a response to the exclusion of hetero-normative morality that prevails in some hegemonic religions. This paper presents an approach that sets intersectionality as a starting point with respect to religion and gender, for through the main concepts of bourdian theory give an account of the processes of exclusion/inclusion and standardization of LGBT identities in the religious field. This approach is done through the different positions of the churches and groups for sexual diversity present in Mexico as well as the religious trajectories and spiritual quests of their members.
