Violence culture, passion-love, sexuality and machismo: an analysis of female voices on conjugal corroded relationships

Abstract

This paper analysis virtual posts from women visiting the Blog, which focuses on conjugal problems. Violence between couples is analyzed through the relational perspective based on Santos and Izumino (2005). About machismo, it is adopted Castañeda’s (2006) point of view that emphasizes machismo as a behavior and a not male exclusive discourse. The passion-love ideology (Rougemont (1988) also enforces the culture of violence. The article is based on Foucault’s (1982, 1984, 1995, 2012) theoretical background in which violence and power are perceived as relational dimensions, and sexuality is also viewed as an important source of violence. The research desires to contribute on the violence against women discussion and their conjugal relations, aiming to reflect about the essentiality of changing cultural paradigms to then transform the scenery described.
