Orgasmo feminino em livros de formação: uma análise por meio da crítica feminista

Abstract

The present study entitled Female Orgasm: The Analysis of the Approach in Training Books Through Feminist Criticism analyzed the biological theories presented in four training books, used in undergraduate courses on female orgasm through feminist criticism, thus examining the discussions of gender around the knowledge that has been produced about the female orgasm, which has been considered as an unimportant and uninteresting element for the production of knowledge. This study aimed at a critical analysis of four training books used in the disciplines of Human Anatomy and Physiology in the Biological Sciences Degree course at the State University of Feira de Santana – UEFS, Bahia, Brazil, with the aim of interpreting the discourses present. In these books, in a gender approach, with feminist studies in the area of Education as a context, for this we use Critical Analysis of Discs and Feminist Criticism of Science as an analysis tool. The results point to the predominance of stereotypical ideas regarding genders. In this sense, theories were highlighted that reinforce oppressive conceptions, including sexist and androcentric ones.
