ABSTRACT
This paper aims at discussing contemporary theories applied to the studies of body, gender and sexuality and providing a review of the relationship between technology and subject in a historical moment we call post-humanism. It also explores the need for a review of discrete categories of sexology of the twentieth century, since the dynamics of cyberculture is deinstitutionalising subjectivities and social identities through new spaces of sociability (cyberspace) and new patterns of sexual behavior. This article's critique offers a path toward the deconstruction of cultural politics that establish the connection between material conditions of production and sexual practices said to be healthy in the sexualization of the body. That is, we reflect on the effects of material work and social symbolism in gender identifications and the cynicism that runs through the postmodern erotology.
