Sumario:Since its beginnings in 2012, this research is situated in the crossroad between sociosemiotics and gender studies, analyzing the ways sexual diversity, non-normative sexual identities and new family models have been reconfigured in different sections of social discourse in Argentina in the two first decades of the 21st century. Our theoretical path builds a genealogy that thinks the relationships between Foucault’s technologies of the self, Teresa de Lauretis’ gender technologies, Haraway’s and Preciado’s contributions, and the relations between feminist theory and affective turn (Sarah Ahmed, Cecilia Macón, Leonor Arfuch). We revisit Laclau’s, Lotman’s, Angenot’s definitions of Rhetoric, to think the political and persuasive dimension of discourse as a naturalization technology, in the analysis of a variety of discourses (literature, written press, educational materials, performances, audiovisual fiction, etc.), building on the hypothesis that the acceptability of non-heteronormative identities and affectivities, as discursive politics is grounded in the social validation of the emotions they put in play and articulate fundamental social evaluations and ideologemes.
