BLANCO, Rafael. Normatividades de la vida cotidiana: Género y sexualidad en los saberes, la política y la sociabilidad universitaria. Propuesta educativa (Online) [online]. 2014, n.42, pp.55-64. ISSN 1995-7785.

The aim of this paper is to problematize the social regulation processes of sexual and gender identities in university student experience. The daily life in these institutions, and specially the way in which the passage through them modules the biography of many youngsters in the context of an era marked by the transformations of the public, private and intimate order, set up a field of reflection not much explored in the Social Sciences and the Educative research. Nevertheless, considering this phenomenon allows to deepen the comprehension of universities as institutions responsible not only for the knowledge transmission, but also the production of subjectivities. It is presented a series of practices in which specific sex-gender regulations that indicate the way students identify themselves and are recognized as males, females, trans, heterosexual, lesbians, gays and their own manners and possibilities of expression are produced. Some ways of biography management that students perform according to this regulation that confirms or destabilize these regulations are also analyzed. This paper is the result of a qualitative research performed between 2007 and 2012 at the Sciences Faculty and Psychology Faculty, both from the University of Buenos Aires.
