“The ethos expected from a management professor forces us to act straight”: Heterosexist harassment against gay professors in Brazil
通过13位巴西男同性恋教授的案例，分析他们在高校中遭受的异性恋主义骚扰，发现暴力程度与阴柔气质相关，且无害玩笑和恐同笑话的常态化阻碍了反骚扰斗争。
Abstract This study aims to analyze how gay Brazilian professors experience heterosexist harassment and the implications of this type of violence for the interpersonal relationships of these professors and for the teaching‐learning process in the academic environment. To this end, we conducted an exploratory study with a qualitative approach. The data were collected through an online survey using the Google Forms platform based on cases reported by 13 gay Brazilian professors working in a technological or higher education institution at the time of the harassment. Our data suggest that most respondents suffered heterosexist harassment in the workplace with violence being more explicit when the professor is more effeminate. Furthermore, we found that the naturalization of games considered harmless and homophobic jokes in the workplace can compromise the fight against heterosexist harassment in organizations. As a result, respondents report behavioral and workplace changes to fit into social norms and to be socially accepted, physical and psychological problems, professional and interpersonal relationships, adversely affecting educational experiences.
