The present project aimed to contribute for construction of knowledge that would appeal to a better understanding of homophobic violence and discrimination and to perceive students’ perspectives on the discriminatory and stereotyped messages conveyed by the television series Glee. The intervention carried out within the scope of the master’s in health education, involved a class of 9th year of schooling, made up of 19 students. The option of the project methodology allowed us to sensitize the students to the need to recognize the different sexual orientations and made possible the reflection about the manifestations of violence, prejudice and discrimination that target people who assume non-heterosexual identities.
