description In this article we explore various questions related to the construction of media sexualities, mapping the ways in which the mass media and information and communication technologies form, shape, create, re-create and reproduce sexualities today, understanding that no sexualization is out of politics and regulations. We deepen on who are sexual beings in the mass media, who have the right to visualize their sexuality and if there are differences in the sexualization of women and men, heterosexual and homosexual, white and black people. Likewise, we delve into the analysis of self-construction as sexual and sexual being through social networks, reality shows and other types of current platforms, which destabilize the boundaries between the public and the private by changing the visibility regimes of self and others.  Based on the content analysis of the media messages, we seek to understand and interpret the dominant sexualities and to reflect on the marginalized sexual bodies of the media. Likewise, from the conceptual framework and a systematization of current legislation in the region and in the world, we propose ways to escape from the new forms of production and reproduction of inequality.

En el presente artículo, exploramos diversos interrogantes relacionados con la construcción de las sexualidades mediáticas mapeando las formas en que los medios masivos de comunicación y las tecnologías de la información y la comunicación forman, conforman, crean, re-crean y reproducen las sexualidades hoy, comprendiendo que ninguna sexualización queda por fuera de la política y lo normado. Profundizamos en quiénes son seres sexuados en los medios masivos de comunicación (en adelante, MMC), quiénes tienen derecho a visibilizar su sexualidad y si existen diferencias en la sexualización de mujeres y hombres, heterosexuales y homosexuales, personas blancas y negras. Igualmente, ahondamos en el análisis de la construcción de sí como ser sexual y sexuado a través de las redes sociales, reality shows y otros tipos de plataformas actuales, que desestabilizan las fronteras entre lo público y lo privado al cambiar los regímenes de visibilidad de sí y de los/as otros/as. Partiendo del análisis de contenido de los mensajes mediáticos, buscamos comprender e interpretar las sexualidades dominantes y reflexionar sobre los cuerpos sexuados marginados de los MMC. Igualmente, a partir del marco conceptual y de una sistematización de la legislación vigente en la región y en el mundo, proponemos formas de escapar de las nuevas formas de producción y reproducción de desigualdad.  Centro de Investigaciones y Estudios sobre Cultura y Sociedad 2017-06-30 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Artículos revisados por pares application/pdf https://revistas.unc.edu.ar/index.php/astrolabio/article/view/16800 10.55441/1668.7515.n18.16800 Astrolabio; No. 18 (2017): SOCIALIDAD MEDIATIZADA: SOFTWARE SOCIAL EN PERSPECTIVA LATINOAMERICANA; 34-61 Astrolabio; Núm. 18 (2017): SOCIALIDAD MEDIATIZADA: SOFTWARE SOCIAL EN PERSPECTIVA LATINOAMERICANA; 34-61 Astrolabio; n. 18 (2017): SOCIALIDAD MEDIATIZADA: SOFTWARE SOCIAL EN PERSPECTIVA LATINOAMERICANA; 34-61 1668-7515 10.55441/1668.7515.n18 spa https://revistas.unc.edu.ar/index.php/astrolabio/article/view/16800/17131
