Summary: This dissertation aims to understand how the discourses that permeate the
activity of Sugar Babies can resignify the local activity of sex. These experiences are experienced based on affective financial relationships between Sugar Babies and Sugar Daddies, which are the meeting points on the Meu Patrocínio website. This work shows a myriad of discursive possibilities represented by sugary babies, an online platform from the company Meu Patrocínio, groups present on the online platform facebook and book How to configure a rich man. Before incorporating discursive into the ankle of women's sex activity, since there are different ways of perceiving female sex activity, this dissertation sought to answer the following research questions: How are the speeches that permeate an activity of sugar babies to re-signify a sex activity? For this, a relationship with a local activity is conceived, such as legitimate and illegitimate relationships, placing a discursive estimate of the categories of gender identities from babies with sugar. When relating illegitimate activities, exhibiting a marginalized activity of prostitution, equally precarious and work wrapped in generated bodies. Finally, for analysis, use Fairclough's (2001) critical analysis proposal, which addresses three levels: text, discursive practices and social practices, based on the power relations present in the constitution of individuals and in social relations. As contributions of this work, as a theoretical contribution, it is possible to understand sex activity in addition to legal issues that fluctuate between the legitimate and the illegitimate. It contributes to explain some of the various discursive possibilities that perpetuate asymmetric power relations. As well, a reproduction of the normative logic by the same heterosexual matrix, which is a legitimate conservative relationship that locates the performance of man as a provider.
