Resumo: This research adopts a perspective of discursive analysis that is based on Foucaultian studies and supports the exercise of the method of an archeogenealogy. We seek to analyze the discursive emergence of the subject “cara macho” subject in relationship applications, which do not publicly announce themselves as advocates of the presence of this subject. To this end, we built problematization about an online dispute over spaces between “machos vs afeminados” that initially determined the composition of corpus from two relationship applications: Grindr and Scruff. We tensed this dispute with events prior to the creation of the mentioned cyberspaces, and discourses, about the occupation of public and private spaces in the twentieth century, they resumed so that discursive procedures in disputes for spaces between men were possible for affective purposes-sexual. Subsequently, from the initial discursive tension, our attention turned to the functioning and dissemination of cyberspaces that act, in the way of a market, linked to a discursiveness that matches freedom and identity diversity. Then the statements and visibilities found on Grindr and Scruff were analyzed in specific sets, which pointed to discursive practices that distance themselves from those adopted by applications in their disclosure, showing exclusions and hierarchizations that inferiorize and marginalize effeminate/women. We realize that this distancing is configured in forms of visibilities attributed to the “caras machos” and two utterances: “Não sou nem curto afeminados” and “Não sou nem curto afeminados. Só questão de gosto.” From the manifestations of these statements, we investigated the conditions that gave them the possibility of existence. The first statement and visibilities of the “macho” led us to consider the rise of monossexual discourse in Brazil, as well as political statements and doctors produced in the twentieth and twentieth century. For the analysis of the emergency conditions of the second statement, we consider media statements to appreciate identity diversity and, above all, the denunciation of "afeminofobia" in cyberspaces. Finally, the results indicated that the permanence of the "macho” subject in the cyberspaces under analysis is based on inferiorization and the exclusion of effeminates/women who, at the present historical moment, emerges in a disguised way, in view of the need for transformation in the face of growing political struggles for appreciation of effeminate men and denunciations of prejudices that support the manly permanence of the “cara macho” in virtual spaces that do not disclose as defenders of places for “machos”.
