Abstract
The article addresses the queer experience of the «via crucis» in contrast to the
traditional narrative. It does so by exploring how gender identity and sexual
orientation influence imposed crossings and social exclusion. Through the
phenomenon of cruising, the examination of the stations of the cross reveal the
segregation and the search for connection in the queer community. Thus, it
challenged conformity and advocates for queer redemption while reinterpreting
the meaning of the cross in a contemporary context. The entire (re)examination
of the «via crucis» proposes a reflection on the politics of crucifixions and
suggests alternatives to transform cis-heteropatriarchal oppression and its
normativities.
