PASTANA, Marcela  y  BORTOLOZZI, Ana Cláudia. Sexuality and pleasure: considerations on interventions in sexual education. Mental [online]. 2022, vol.14, n.25, pp.1-21. ISSN 1679-4427.

Sexual education programs are characterized by the planned and systematic discussion about sexuality involving its multiple aspects, discussion which happens mainly at schools. In this article, the objective is to problematize the theme of pleasure in sex education interventions, through five thematic categories: 1) Sexuality and pleasure; 2) Critique to the approach about sexuality focused in negative aspects and/or reduced to the biological aspects; 3) Gender patterns, heteronormativity and pleasure; 4) Normatization of adolescence and 5) The imperative of pleasure and the sexual repression. It is aimed, from the reflection about the listed themes, to defend the importance of the critical reflection about the cultural patterns related to pleasure for the construction of a broader comprehension about sexuality.

Palabras clave : Sexual education; Sexuality; Pleasure; Sexual repression; Gender.
