Abstract

This article presents the state of the art of Brazilian academic production on cuceta, this hybrid and transitory organ in artivist and sexual contexts of trans women, transvestites and gay men. From searches with the keyword "cuceta" on academic platforms, the data were collected, validated and organized into two axes of observation named as follows: cucetas sexuales and cucetas artivistas. From this, the following considerations were established regarding the cuceta: absence of authorship of the term; double incipience of knowledge (in the Humanities and in the context of sexual practices); distinctions in the treatment of the cuceta of the "I" and the "other"; protagonism of the performances of Solange, Tô Aberta and Tertuliana Lustosa in the analyses; and analytical prevalence of the artivist approach arising from the nature of the performances mentioned.
