Resumen
En este artículo se abordarán las representaciones en torno al rol de las mujeres gestantes a través de las representaciones discursivas y visuales construidas en medios de comunicación masiva sobre tres casos de personas subrogantes “famosas”. Se observarán las alusiones y las elusiones del carácter mercantil o del carácter afectivo de la tríada vincular establecida en la relación de subrogación: persona subrogante, mujer subrogada, niño/a nacido de la gestación. El deseo se efectiviza como derecho a través del mercado, lo que implica una acción de consumo, con las desigualdades interseccionales que ella implica. Al mismo tiempo, al menos en dos de los tres casos abordados, las personas subrogantes han construido una imagen de sus hijos públicamente exhibida en medios de comunicación y redes sociales que, a la postre, representa también una forma de mercantilización. Se propone pensar el vínculo en torno a la subrogación a partir de la tensión impuesta a las mujeres entre lo afectivo y lo económico como, en términos de Zelizer, “esferas separadas”, y la perpetuación de este divorcio conceptual como un mecanismo de refuerzo de desigualdades interseccionales.
In this article, the representations built around the role of pregnant women will be addressed through the discursive and visual representations built in mass media around three cases of “famous” subrogant people. Allusions and elusions of the mercantile character or the affective nature of the linking triad established in the subrogation relationship will be observed: subrogated person, subrogated woman, child born from gestation. Desire becomes effective as a right through the market, which implies an action of consumption, with the intersectional inequalities that it implies. At the same time, in at least two of the three cases addressed, subrogated people have constructed an image of their children publicly displayed in the media and social networks that, in the end, also represents a form of commodification. It is proposed to think about the link around subrogation based on the tension imposed on women between the affective and the economic as, in Zelizer's terms, “separate spheres”, and the perpetuation of this conceptual divorce as a form of intersectional domination.
