Summary: | This paper aims to translate the experience of cisnormative bodies, categorized as men, into the participation in places recognized as feminine, Social Assistence Policy, and feminists, Post-structuralist Feminist Theories. We understand that experience, history staged by language, produces the subject and it is not something that the subject has as property or a priori. Thus, we report our paths in feminist theories and their contribution in the construction of our practices in the Social Assistance Policy, through three questions: Who are we? Where we came from? Where are we going? With them, we conclude that, because we are men, we need to denounce the privileges to build bridges for change and not abysses for maintenance, breaking with the generalization of the man category, stating that we are in a generalized place of man, produced by the norms of gender, but that we seek the destabilization of this place |
