Effeminate gay and bisexual men are targets of double stigmatization because of anti-effeminacy and society's homophobia, even among the non-heterosexual community. This study aimed to investigate, in an exploratory way, the relational structure of anti-effeminacy through network analysis. An online survey was carried out with 1,123 non-heterosexual Brazilian men over 18 years old and with a mean age of 26.85 years (SD = 8.51). The relational model of anti-effeminacy produced in this study found associations with internalized homophobia (rp = 0.32) and predilection for more manlike partners (rp = 0.45). In addition, it was possible to identify an indirect relationship with the opening of sexual orientation, which occurs through internalized homophobia. This study, in addition to being the first one to develop a network analysis on anti- effeminacy, contributes to the understanding of the phenomenon in the Brazilian context, providing perspectives for further research in the field.
