Aesthetics of the invisible and androgyny: the dissolution of the symbolic unit of belonging as a reflection for physical education / Estética do invisível e androginia: a dissolução da unidade simbólica de pertencimento como reflexão à educação física

ABSTRACT The interest in conducting this study stems from the visibility that non-binary individuals acquire in different spaces, including in artistic manifestations that invite one to dialogue. An example is the event "Visible Bodies Multilanguage Exhibition: Art and Diversity", which promoted a public debate around the theme. It included a photographic exhibition entitled "Aesthetics of the Invisible", from which we selected two images to be interpreted, discussing some senses linked to their compositions: "Ensaio disfarce para o fim do mundo" and "Meu corpo criação", henceforth referred to as "Disguised Rehearsal for the End of the World" and "My Creation Body", respectively. The method is inspired on the anthropology of image. It requires that interpretation goes beyond the content of the photographs to encompass aspects tied to their production and exhibition. Results show that both images overcome the authoritarian discourse, representing individuals who refuse to submit themselves to current identity processes. They express a mode of suffering that is translated into a symptom by the dissolution of the symbolic unit of belonging. The elements that constitute them evoke notions of divinity, power, resistance and transformation. In addition to changing subjectivities, the photographs illuminate the rise of a new paradigm that defies conventions and brings about changes in different fields, especially in those that act directly on the body.

RESUMO O interesse pela realização do estudo parte da visibilidade que indivíduos não binários adquirem em diferentes espaços, inclusive em manifestações artísticas que convidam ao diálogo. Um exemplo é o evento "Mostra de Multilinguagens Corpos Visíveis: arte e diversidade", que promoveu um debate público envolvendo a temática. A mesma comportou a exposição fotográfica "Estética do Invisível", de onde selecionamos duas imagens, com o objetivo de interpretá-las, discutindo alguns sentidos atrelados às suas composições. Trata-se daquelas intituladas "Ensaio disfarce para o fim do mundo" e "Meu corpo criação". O método é inspirado na antropologia da imagem. O mesmo exige que a interpretação supere o conteúdo das fotografias e considere aspectos ligados à sua produção e exibição. Os resultados apontam que ambas as imagens superam o discurso autoritário, representando indivíduos que recusam se submeter aos processos identitários vigentes. Elas expressam um modo de sofrimento, que se traduz em sintoma pela dissolução da unidade simbólica de pertencimento. Os elementos que as constituem evocam noções de divindade, poder, resistência e transformação. Além de subjetividades cambiantes, as fotografias iluminam o despontar de um novo paradigma que desafia convenções e acarreta mudanças em diferentes campos, principalmente aos que atuam diretamente sobre o corpo.

A Research on Androgynous Female College Students' Personality Traits,Physical and Psychological Symptom and Adaptation to College Life / 中国心理卫生杂志

Objective:To explore androgynous female college students' personality traits,physical and psycho- logical symptom and adaptation to college life.Methods:A cluster sample of 1081 female college students was tested with the Chinese Sex Role Inventory (CSBI),NEO Personality Inventory-Revised (NEO-PI-R),Symptom Checklist 90 (SCL-90),and China College Student Adjustment Scale (CCSAS).Results:(1) The percentage of four gender role stereotypes,including masculine,feminine,androgynous and undifferentiated,were 23.8%,24.1%, 25.1%,27.1% respectively.(2) Androgynous female college students' score of extraversion,openness,agreeable- ness,conscientiousness were highest,for example,androgynous female college students' score of extraversion was (3.7?0.4),but androgynous female college students' score (2.1?0.6) of neuroticism was lowest.In contrast,un- differentiated female college students' scores of extraversion (3.1?0.5),openness,agreeableness,conscientious- ness were lowest,androgynous female college students' score (2.8?0.6) of neuroticism was highest.For other gender role stereotypes,female college students' score was between androgynous and undifferentiated.(3) As to all factors of physical and psychological symptom,androgynous female college students' scores were lowest,but undifferentiated fe- male college students' scores were highest.For example,anxiety score of androgynous female college students was (1.4?0.4),and that of undifferentiated female college students was (1.6?0.6);depression score of androgynous female college students was (1.4?0.4),and that of undifferentiated female college students was (1.6?0.6). (4) Androgynous female college students' adjustment of interpersonal relationship (37.6?5.7) was better than that of undifferentiated female college students (29.4?6.5).Other gender role stereotypes' adjustment scores of interper- sonal relationship were between androgynous and undifferentiated female college students.Conclusion:Although an- drngynous female college students' personality trait,physical and psychological symptom and adaptation to college life are better than other gender role stereotypes statistically,these results need more deeply research.
