Abstract
The aim of this study was to understand the practices of self-naming in social applications of interaction in order to outline a classification of male homosexuality, alternative sexualities, and desire in Brazil. This qualitative study, based on a documentary and bibliographic research in the form of cartography, worked with a corpus of 1,732 words extracted from 1,005 user profiles on Scruff (a cellphone social interaction application used by men who seek to relate affectivelysexually with other men). We used the data mining Voyant Tools software that allowed the visualization of correlations, co-occurrences, flows, and dispersion of textual themes, as well as the technique of content analysis in order to identify the main subjects in the corpus. We found out that, in their self-classification, some subjects use terms that provoke slight changes of meaning, distancing themselves from a gay identity, and reinforcing their masculinity while relying on stereotypes and prejudices.Authors:
