Abstract
ABSTRACT In the dominant theological production of Mary as holy “Virgin,” theological discourses have ironically hyper-sexualized the Mother of God. This article explores the sexuality of the Virgin, introducing a Popular Queer Mariology. Engaging with Gloria E. Anzaldúa’s treatment of Guadalupe/la Chingada/la Llorona, as well as veneration of Nuestra Señora de la Santa Muerte, this article contends that popular religiosity provides resources for queering the figure of Mary in ways that destabilizes whore/virgin binaries and affirms death, finitude, and the materiality of the body that dominant theological discourses have attempted to negate.
在主要的神学作品中，玛丽是神圣的“处女”，神学话语讽刺地将上帝之母过度性化。这篇文章探讨了圣母的性取向，介绍了一种流行的同性恋音乐。结合Gloria E. Anzaldúa对Guadalupe/la Chingada/la Llorona的处理，以及对Nuestra Señora de la Santa Muerte的崇拜，这篇文章认为，流行的宗教信仰为玛丽的形象提供了资源，这种方式破坏了妓女/处女的二元性，并肯定了死亡、有限性和身体的物物性，这些都是主导神学话语试图否定的。
