Posições de sujeito da mulher e do homem em textos de sedução e conquista: Machado De Assis, Playboy e os blogs masculinos

Abstract

Over the course of two centuries the role of women in society has changed considerably and remains changing to the present day. However, conceptions of women as objects of male conquest in the 21st century seem to occupy the same places even after the feminist movements established in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. With this, this present work has as general objective to analyze the subject positions that intersect in seduction manuals; As specific objectives, to observe how the meanings of these feminine positions (re) mean the masculine subject positions and to perceive in feminine significations discursive positions of the female subject as object of conquest since the feminist movements. In this way, we use a historical clipping that goes since the 19th century, analyzing the work Fall that women have for the fools of Machado de Assis (1861), matters that approach the theme of seduction and conquest published in Playboy magazine of the 90's And manuals of seduction techniques published in masculine blogs (actuality). For this purpose, the theoretical methodological assumptions of the French Discourse Analysis developed by Michel Pêcheux were used. This led to the following conclusions: conquest is the place of contention in which the masculine subject uses as a space for self-affirmation of his masculinity; The woman the object used for this purpose, even given its emancipation, the subject positions that tend to occupy in the male discourse is of inferiority; As the man means the woman in his speech, this tends to resignify itself with the image that it has of the feminine and this always leads to the estrangement of the woman, and, finally, the reflection that to know the structures that regulate the practices of submission and domination must enable the deconstruction of the canons of this practice and enable the establishment of new paradigms for the construction of egalitarian relations between men and women.
