Moral policies on sex are constituted from historical processes marked by continuities and discontinuities. This article aims to investigate the constitutive elements of sexual morality demarcated by the authoritarian advances of the democratic interregnum in Argentina (1973-1976) and the Brazilian military dictatorship (1964-1985). From the analysis of the Somos magazine, the Argentine Homosexual Liberation Front (flh) and the Lampião da Esquina newspaper (1978-1981), we understand the discourses and laws that constitute the stigmatization and repression of homosexual men and gender identities. dissidents, as well as trace some of the challenges to current morality. The first section of this text discusses the current situation and the reconfiguration of two authoritarianisms in Latin America. In the second section, it presents the new social characters in each analyzed context, demarcating two homosexual movements in these countries as possible emerging forums. The third part intends to analyze the origins of two moral systems about sex and sexual identities. Finally, the last section presents, in an incipient way, some of the strategies of moral destabilization in force in that period.
