Sumario:The massification of feminisms since 2015 has intensified a series of debates around gender relations, the forms of organization of intimate life, the regulation of sexuality and masculinity. The crisis of the romantic order pointed out by various researchers, has become an object of theming for a heterogeneous range of actors in different public arenas.In this work we analyze the disputes of meanings about certain norms that regulate sex-affective relationships between men and women, based on the qualitative analysis of the discourses produced by a group of people who practices consensual non-monogamy and adhere to the ideals of free love and another of men who they pay for sex and are recognized as gateros. These groups, which seem to be located at opposite poles, stress the hegemonic model of the couple in different ways. Based on a series of in-depth interviews with members of a free love group in a Buenos Aires city and a virtual ethnography in an Argentine forum for the exchange of commercial sex experiences, we analyze the meanings that the actors produce on notions such as those of monogamy / polyamory, fidelity / infidelity, commerce / affection-love, equality / asymmetry.
