MATADOR’S ‘GAY UP’ AL BUCKS MACHO TRADN
My Tenr Matador (Tiengo Miedo, Torero) follows the Queen of the Corners, not otherwise named, a gay man makg her1 livg the lower end of the pal cy Santiago, when she falls love wh one of the young men of the Patrtic Front and be entangled polil schem she n’t ignore…. Pedro Lemebel (1952-2015) was among other thgs, an sayist and chronicler of Chile and the dictatorship, and as a gay man showed the queer perspective of the untry and the polil turmoil that was severely unrreprented. My Tendor Matador is wrten as one long tertwed narrative wh no chapter breaks, and revolv around two gay men: the middle-aged Queen of the Corners as she not only falls hopelsly love wh the younger “Carlos”, but also to helpg wh the Patrtic Front’s revolutnary schem; and Gonzalo, hairdrser to Pochet’s wife, who is never seen by the rear.
We see the two gay men livg different social class and havg drastilly different effects on the ary dictatorship, although both live below the surface awarens of society by virtue of their sexualy. Although movements for LGBTQ+ rights Chile were creasg and some trans rights had even been won the late 60s and early 70s, such as name chang and genr rrectns, there was strong opprsn durg the dictatorship 1973-1990, and homosexualy wasn’t crimalized until as late as 1990. However, we might see her power to love openly, to wear drag public, to create a bs as a bold strength that is almost unimagable, nsirg the btal opprsn on all but the most wealthy ary people Chile, and pecially the homophobia of the dictator himself.
