The gay identity: an identity in tension. One way to understand the world of homosexuals

Abstract

The gay identity is emerging and has permeated societies globally. It is more than gay men or women who have sex with individuals of the same sex, is an entire network that opens the door to reflect on gender and social constructs that have been reinforced around homosexualities. I use the term in the plural, because as we will see in this exhibition, homosexuality and can operate in several different ways, so that it cuts the homosexual gay world, taking as reference a part of it and showing its many faces.
