Abstract: In the last two decades, the anti gender movement has had a significant impact in laws,
policies and collective mentality in multiple countries. It has curtailed important advances
of feminist and queer basis, but also related with (through shared political base, actors and
discourse) diverse matters of civic life and human rights (such as worker s’ rights,
environmental protection and even war). It is the purpose of this study to contribute to the
development/furthering of coalitionary liberatory activism in response to this conservative
mobilisation.
In this research, the main issue contemplated is that of how matters of identity and
subjectivity come into play to make the formation of a heterogeneous community around
the anti-gender movement possible, durable, and arguably successful. Guided by a critical
discourse analysis approach, a selection of pronouncements made by key Brazilian
anti-gender proponents in 2019-2020 was examined. The main focus was on the
conceptualisations of the self and the Other conveyed, which are displayed to the reader
through thematic analysis. The conclusion reached is that subjectification processes in the
anti-gender movement operate in the frame of a master model (Plumwood, 1993).
