Item Discursos frente a una masculinidad hegemónica de representantes de asociaciones escuelas en la Universidad de Cuenca durante el período académico marzo agosto 2022(Universidad de Cuenca, 2022-09-21) Agreda Lavanda, Adalid Yaneysi; Flores León, Mayra Valeria; Delgado Quezada, Tania LorenaThe research problem is based on the persistence of the challenges in the University of Cuenca for the deconstruction of a hegemonic masculinity, given that 1 out of every 2 students has suffered sexual harassment (Universidad de Cuenca, 2022), and the 83% students’ indifference to traditional masculinity ideology (Orellana and Yanza, 2018). All this, despite the educational institution works for student welfare, as well as student representatives, who are stakeholders in this problem, due to their influence (Sánchez, 2014). Therefore, with a psychosocial approach, this study seeked to describe discourses of masculinity and its tensions in everyday practices from representatives of school associations, from Federation of University Students of Ecuador [FUSE] at the University of Cuenca, for the academic period march-august 2022. This qualitative and phenomenological study was descriptive, with gender approach. For this, a study group was formed with 14 cisgender men, who were representatives of FUSE school associations and participated in semi-structured interviews and focus groups. The representatives had traditional and alternative discourses of masculinity. The identity of men was attained with male models in their family and with the subordination of the female. There was an hegemonic discourse of the male as domineering, by nomation estrategies about gender and legitimation of men power with a version on a feminism against men, but a participant kept an alternative male discourse. There were minor discourses about male tension, which disputed the appearance of agreement, by representatives’ thoughts about emotional restriction, violence and stereotypes related to an ideal model of being a man.
