SUMMARY:

The present study has the general objective of analyzing the production of imaginaries in the functioning of the sexting discourse in the closed RSD Whatsapp and the power relations that constitute them. Thus, the proposal was to work in the light of the Discourse Analysis (DA) of the French School. To achieve this objective, the methodology used included bibliographical research, through investigation of material on the topic in books, scientific articles, newspaper articles, dissertations and theses, printed and online; and field research with a qualitative approach, with a questionnaire composed of open and closed questions to support data analysis. The discussion has as its descriptive corpus excerpts provided by volunteers, formed by linguistic and image materialities exchanged via Whatsapp, presented in subcategories: nudes, emojis and stickers. To achieve the discursive corpus, the main question is regarding the discursive regularities present in the practice of sexting and the power relations that constitute them. At this point, we worked with the notions of censorship (as a system of control and delimitation of sexting discourse), denial (as a gesture of power in relationships between peers) and resistance (in relation to the exchange of images, such as the approach and request to send images defined as "nudes"). The research results showed that imagery and linguistic materialities work intertwined even when they are not presented directly in the sexting discourse, producing meanings in which the subject's position of power acts subjectively, calling those involved to interpellations and interpretations affected by historicity and ideology.
