Entre práticas e nomeações: discursos sobre a violência obstétrica e seus efeitos de sentido

Abstract

With the significant increase in the use of social media, it is noticeable that this space has become a commonly used environment for sharing personal testimonies on numerous topics. With a view to greater visibility and identification of obstetric violence, the internet has become a resource for expressing the reports of women who have experienced this phenomenon. Thus, this work focused on the analysis of discourses of women who went through such experiences, with the objective of analyzing these experiences from their perspectives. A total of 195 reports were collected, including posts and comments, from Instagram and Facebook platforms, using the hashtag #obstetricviolence. The data analysis was based on Michel Pêcheux's Discourse Analysis. The results exemplify how experiences are directly affected by the interference of social markers that intersect the experience of these women.
