The article is a virtual field research that seeks to analyze the statements, the power relations and the productions of subjectivities from two humorous videos around sexual and gender dissents. The videos are humor skits of epoch-making characters on Brazilian television in different decades (80 and 90). The method used is the discourse analysis in Michel Foucault, using the concepts of utterance, truth, knowledge, power and subject. The discursive elements were seized from the speeches, images and comments of the selected videos. Ahead, I problematize the results of the research on the tension between stigma production and possibilities of resistance through humor on television and the Internet.
