Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP): tensions and disputes about sex in the bareback curriculum ^{1 2 3 4 5}

Abstract

This article brings part of the results of doctoral research. The analysis was conducted from a post-critical curricular perspective. We understand in this text that the curriculum is not restricted to school subjects, but constituted in different spaces and cultural artifacts. The methodology used articulated elements of netnography and analysis of the Foucauldian-inspired discourse from a blog and three Twitter profiles. We name the heterogeneous set of statements located on these bareback curriculum websites. The argument developed is that in this curriculum, the position of preper subject is produced, constituted with specific marks based on the demand for the use of PrEP. These marks, in the context of bareback sexual practice, show tensions in how anti-aids pedagogy centered on condoms works as a prevention method.
