Homophobia is still alive in our society and sustains itself by the heteronormativity that orders what would be considered ideal and expected in the affective-sexual relations and in the gender relation as well. The ideal affective-sexual relation considered is the heterosexual monogamous marriage with children. The Christianism and later, the Science validated a heteronormativity. According to this, there are many myths related to the homosexuality and, consequently, for the homosexual families with children, sustained critics related to the well-being of children and teenagers who live with these families.

The results of this study show that the members from the interviewed families, in spite of sometimes, reproduced values considered traditional and heteronormative, transform the social order from the affection valorization and also from the socio-affective feeling into the familiar relation to the detriment of biological relation and from the expectatives of antagonic gender from the partners.
