Abstract
The article analyzes the different positions and versions on the sexuality of boys, girls, and young people in the discussion around the Bill that establishes General Standards on Education on Affectivity, Sexuality and Gender for Educational Establishments Recognized by the State between March 2019 and October 2020 in Chile. A qualitative study was conducted with a textual corpus made up of the verbatim transcripts of the seven hearing sessions where the project was debated. The results show five categories: Liberalism and deregulation, Life cycle development, Culturalist dispute, Defense of the family, and Participation as action. It is discussed how the different positions are articulated from the configuration of a way of governing populations through the strategic focus on early ages as a mechanism of preparation for adult life.
