Sumario:The article refers to the moral problem that specific young men and women who were part of the JOC represented for the association. I will analyze the reverse of the discourses emitted by the JOC sources on the moral ideals of being a JOC member. I will aim to show that these discourses, issued by its own members, poorly concealed a general distrust towards the management of free time and the salary of the members of that same association: the youth of the popular sectors. From the intersection between the categories of age and class, I will investigate the tensions between the moral heteronormativity of the Catholic youth of the JOC and their experiences and sociability as young people and workers. The main source used, the Juventud Obrera newspaper, represented the JOC because it set the standards for the ideal thinking and behavior of the JOC members. However, it also revealed certain realities of the popular classes that affected the JOC members first hand and disturbed the re-Christianizing function of the association.
