OPRESSÃO, MANIPULAÇÃO E SILÊNCIO: INTERSECCIONALIDADES ENTRE RELIGIÃO, GÊNERO, RAÇA E VIOLÊNCIA NOS RELACIONAMENTOS HETEROSSEXUAIS

Abstract

Resumo: Este artigo apresenta como os discursos religiosos cristãos e o neoconservadorismo contribuem para a manutenção da violência contra mulheres em relacionamentos heterossexuais no Brasil atual. Para além das igrejas e comunidades evangélicas, observa-se que a moral cristã tradicional vem moldando imaginários sociais, influenciando mídias, políticas públicas e as dinâmicas afetivas contemporâneas. A valorização da “família tradicional”, da submissão feminina e da hierarquia entre os gêneros é constantemente reafirmada como modelo desejável de convivência, o que favorece a naturalização da desigualdade e o silenciamento de experiências de violência. Com base em uma perspectiva interseccional, fundamentada nos estudos de gênero, feminismo e psicologia social, o trabalho investiga como religião, gênero, classe e raça operam de forma articulada na legitimação da violência doméstica. Utilizando levantamento bibliográfico de produções acadêmicas clássicas e também recentes, o artigo demonstra que essa lógica de dominação masculina, sustentada por discursos morais e políticos, é reproduzida tanto nas relações privadas quanto nas esferas públicas e midiáticas. Argumenta-se que a aliança entre cristianismo moralizante e neoconservadorismo político dificulta o enfrentamento das violências de gênero ao fragilizar políticas públicas e criminalizar as pautas feministas. Diante disso, defende-se a urgência de políticas públicas interseccionais, culturalmente sensíveis e comprometidas com os direitos humanos, assim como uma atuação crítica e ética da psicologia diante das múltiplas formas de violência legitimadas. Palavras- chave: Neoconservadorismo; Violência de gênero; Heteronormatividade. Abstract: This article examines how Christian religious discourses and neoconservatism contribute to the perpetuation of violence against women in heterosexual relationships in contemporary Brazil. Beyond churches and evangelical communities, traditional Christian morality has been shaping social imaginaries, influencing media, public policies, and contemporary affective dynamics. The valorization of the “traditional family,” female submission, and gender hierarchy is constantly reaffirmed as the desirable model of coexistence, fostering the normalization of inequality and the silencing of experiences of violence. Drawing on an intersectional perspective grounded in gender studies, feminism, and social psychology, this work investigates how religion, gender, class, and race operate in an interconnected manner to legitimize domestic violence. Through a literature review of both classical and recent academic works, the article demonstrates that this logic of male domination, sustained by moral and political discourses, is reproduced in both private relationships and public and media spheres. It is argued that the alliance between moralizing Christianity and political neoconservatism hinders efforts to confront gender-based violence by weakening public policies and criminalizing feminist agendas. In light of this, the article advocates for the urgency of intersectional, culturally sensitive public policies committed to human rights, as well as a critical and ethical engagement of psychology in addressing the multiple forms of legitimized violence. Keywords: Neoconservatism; Gender-Based violence; Heteronormativity.
