Educação e sexualidade: perspectivas teóricas, aspectos legais e produções científicas sobre esta prática no meio escolar

Abstract

This research aims to analyze the main legal references and some productions of teses and dissertation of the platform Oasis, between the years of 1996 to 2018, concerning the discussion of sexuality in the school environment and its implications for the practice. For this, in the methodology, the bibliographic review is as a procedural means from the sociohistorical approach as an epistemological follow-up, in which sexuality was resumed in the light of the foulcaultian theory. The main results show that the public policies on sexuality education, in different spheres, considered from the Lei de Diretrizes e Bases da Educação Nacional (LDB), thus accentuating long periods of time to be legally approved, but which, regardless of the time, sought to consolidate, in the educational environment, a scenario of teaching and discussions about sexuality. With respect to theses and dissertations sensu, it has been made around how sexuality is experienced and / or discussed from the first grades of basic education to the preparation of higher education teachers and demonstrate that, even after twenty and two years after the implementation of LDB, delicate situations, in all Brazilian Regions, stand out during day-to-day sexuality education practices. Thus, it is noticed that even though there has been progress in the creation of legal references to support the interventions and work of education in sexuality, the attempts to construct the Brazilian educational curriculum are still irrigated by hygienic, demographic and religious visions, however, gradually movements against such visions have been highlighted in favor of the existence of the thematic "sexuality" with naturality in the school stimulating knowledge and the development of tolerance the diversities around the theme.
