Resumen: "Let me begin by clarifyung my terminology. By "gender" I mean a social system which defines subjects as men adn women, and governs the relationships between them. By "sexuality" I mean a social system regulating the forms and the expression of erotic desire. I'll also be using the term "sexual identity" to refer to a social status which is based on claiming a particular form of desire. In modern western societies mosto salient sexual identities are defined in terms of object choice: a person may be hereosexual, desiring the other gender, or homosexual, desirin the same gender; or possibly bisexual, capable of desiring both genders.

Resumen: Translation as a cultural process can be used in various ways to suppress or promote ideologies. Within the framework of Critical Studies in Translation, this article examines the presence of the phenomenon of manipulation; that is, deliberate alteration of central topics and messages for ideological purposes, in the Spanish translation of the story The Happy Prince by Oscar Wilde. It proposes that Wilde's specific intent in using the fairy tale genre to battle heterosexism (the belief that heterosexuality is the only norm) is not transmitted in any of the Spanish versions of the story, since its English publication in 1888 to the twenty-first century. The analysis proves that all twelve translations of the story found, included the famous translation by Jorge Luis Borges in 1910, manipulate the sex and sexuality of the characters by taking advantage of the commonly perceived ambiguities between the grammatical and cultural gender in Spanish. This is done in such a way that one of the messages of the story, the redemption of homosexual love and its acceptance by God, is omitted entirely to become, and promote, the standard and conventional view of sexuality that dominates contemporary Western tradition. The article finishes by pointing out the linguistic choices that need to be considered for a new translation of the story and provides the translation of a passage as an example.
