Abstract


Intersexuality is considered a critical, subversive and deconstructive tool for the categories of sex and gender, in particular from social constructivist theoretical positions well nurtured by post-estructuralist rethoric. The purpose of this article is to discuss the reception of Foucault’s thought in studies on Intersexuality, explain his concepts and how they are incorporated, and which ideas they contribute to destabilizing or reifying within the current debates.
