Resumo:
The way in which Christian ethics intersects with women's ways of subjectivation and their ways of being a woman, seems to oppose authenticity and desire, genuine in an idea of femininity as a way of subjectivation in the face of the human condition of helplessness. However, based on Jesus' subjective conduct in the scriptures, this did not seem to be Christ's objective, for people to remain hostage to a suffocating dogmatism, without freedom and authentic life. To illustrate this reflection, two vignettes originating from clinical psychoanalytic activity were analyzed to illustrate the contemporary impasses that occur in the lives of women in their construction of femininity. Thus, there was an interest in understanding whether there would in fact be an ethics more coherent with the expression present in the life of Jesus himself, to the detriment of a Christian ethics widely disseminated in church institutions. To do so, it is necessary to understand the effects of Jesus' ethics on femininity from a psychoanalytic perspective, based on his encounter with the Samaritan woman in John 4:4-30. From the description of the biblical text about this meeting, it can be seen that there is a change in the ways in which that woman places herself in social discourse, through the ethical conduct of Jesus who gives voice to that woman when he recognizes her as a subject, giving to it a subjective place. Two groups of biblical studies with women in an ecclesiastical context were observed and the data collected on the perception of Jesus' ethics by ordinary contemporary women based on the text corroborate the theoretical findings about what Jesus' ethics would be, especially from the perspective of José Maria Castillo. Therefore, thinking about the place of women in their construction of femininity from the perspective of Jesus' ethics can generate possibilities for thinking about an aspect of religiosity that goes beyond morality and dogmatics, which is the subject's relationship with Christ himself in an experience of faith. authentic. Jesus does not propose overcoming helplessness, but the possibility of supporting it through an authentic spirituality that is coherent with each person's subjectivity.
