Abstract
The night and his metaphors in gay cruising, as a politic practice, like the appropriation and/or adaptation of public, semi-public or semi-private spaces for anonymous and fortuitous sex. As a replica of the night, of the covert and the proscribed, the dark room is instituted that recreates the night atmosphere during the day. This practice is interpreted as a political and liberating act, which paradoxically continues to resort to nightlife as a veil that conceals reminiscences of the ostracism, marginality and stigma of homosexuality in our society, which keeps it in the place of deviation with its burden of homophobia.
