WOMEN NETWORKING: SOCIABILITY, MORALITY, AND BIOGRAPHICAL NARRATIVES OF LESBIANS IN PIAUÍ AND MARANHÃO

Abstract

This text presents some biographical narratives of lesbians who live in Teresina (Piauí) and São Luís (Maranhão), with the aim of starting a reflexion about their everyday experiences as women that love other women and, therefrom, thinking about the possibility of updating the theory of the system of representations about male sexuality in Brazil proposed by Peter Fry in the 1970s and 1980s considering the moralities that structure the sociability network of these lesbians.Keywords: lesbians, biographical narratives, sociability network, morality
