Abstract

The idea of virility compared to current modes of reframing attitudes, practices and behaviors historically linked to a virile culture is discussed. The object of analysis comprises discourses on the lumbersexual person in the social media to problematize the discursive frenzy as a reconfiguration symptom of virility, engendered in/by history and, therefore, susceptible to changes and rearrangements.
