Abstract

This paper analyzes the representation of the LGTBIQ+ community from the approach of intersectional studies, with the aim of identifying advertising techniques and strategies in relation to the LGBTIQ+ public in the context of consumer society. To this end, the case study focuses on the analysis of the representation of the LGBTIQQ+ community in images of the «Pride Special» issues of Shangay magazine between 2017 and 2022. Thus, the text is meant as an accounting of such identities and the ways in which each of them are presented, thereby identifying the interests that lie in advertising and mercantile terms, and their contribution (or lack thereof) to the visibilization of the collective in a diverse and inclusive way.
