As a product of modernity and a phenomenon that saw full development during the 20th century, sport has also been affected by the demands of revolutionary movements of the 1960s and therefore split in multiple expressions. This research is concerned with two of them in particular, namely, elite sports for disabled athletes – notably the Paralympic Games – and tournaments where lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people (LGBT) compete together – Gay and Outgames. The aim is to discuss bodies in action through what I call “dissonant sports practices”, in order to debate to what extent such practices could disrupt established normativity. The study’s contributes to thinking anthropologically about the extent to which those practices would be included/represented in mainstream sports, thus opening reconsiderations about them.
