Abstract

Psychoanalysis, literature and mass media are combined to think about the evolution of masculinity from the questioning impulse of Silvia Bleichmar and the work of Hanif Kureishi. The role of psychoanalysis as a way of access to knowledge is highlighted. And the necessity of analyzing some formulations that in an ankylosed way have served to interpret as homosexuals, certain fantasies that may appear as part of the process of manliness construction. Desires of masculinization through the relationship with another man come up with a paradoxical way of access to heterosexuality. It is not only about having a penis, but showing the potency, the
virility, and that never seems to be reached in a total satisfactory way. The necessity of discriminating oneself from homosexuality appears as an important anxiogenic factor. some of the conceptions about homosexuality that have been used in psychoanalytical practices and discourses do not seem to have permitted to resolve these conflicts.
