Abstract

MAIO, Eliane Rose  and  OLIVEIRA JUNIOR, Isaias Batista de. Sexual diversity and homophobia: a "disarrangement" culture in public educational policies. Práxis Educativa [online]. 2015, vol.10, n.1, pp.35-53. ISSN 1809-4309.  https://doi.org/10.5212/PraxEduc.v.10i1.0002.

Levels resulting from the disqualification of "compulsory heteronormativity" process that focus on Lesbians, Gays, Bisexuals, Bigenders, Transvestites, Transsexuals, Transgenders, Queers, Questioners, Intersexes, Indecisives, Asexuals and Allies people emerge in several instances. As a dialog agent, the school has been characterized as a strategic place to implement public policies and, in this context, emerge actions as the School without Homophobia and Health and Prevention in School programs. In order to promote the discussion on strategies developed in the national scenario, it is discussed its products: Gay Kit, Adolescents and Youth Peer Education Guide and Comic Books. Using bibliographical research as a methodology, excerpts of a master's thesis are used so as to bring the theory of Cultural Studies as a mainstay of discourse. Given the government's suspension of these materials, one realizes how difficult it is to stand up against public opinion. However, the refusal of the majority does not give the State the right to withhold basic rights of minorities.

Keywords : Fighting Homophobia Kit; School Without Homophobia Project; Health and Prevention in School Program. Comic Books.
