Violence and constant sexual abuse of homosexuals are common practices in Brazilian prisons. This work is a reflection of the results of the field research carried out at the Penitentiary Chief Justice Flósculo da Nóbrega in João Pessoa, State of Paraíba, on the creation of an exclusive area for the population of gays, bisexuals, transvestites and transsexuals. During the last eleven months of work, analyzes were made of the documents regarding the creation of this area in the State of Paraíba, the ethnography of the prison, the participatory observation with the victims, interviews with managers, employees and all those who were convicted. We identified a lack of documents that prove the official character of the policy and ensure its implementation and permanence. We conduct the ethnography and recognize the rules of coexistence of this new prison environment. Through the observation and narratives of the convicted, we show how experiences and peculiarities of the social effects of the separation of the spaces based on the criteria of sexual orientation, as well as the circumstances and contexts of the implementation of this policy. We understand that the convicted are satisfied with the reduction in physical violence practiced, but they complain about their freedom when compared to others in the same prison institution. We end with the understanding that the policy of segregation instituted decreased the number of physical violence, but it has not minimized stigmatization, nor the fragility in sociability, considering they are prevented from participating in all spaces to others. Thus, some choose to think that the LGBT area should continue, and others ignore and long for non-permanence of the space, since they prefer to give up security to have their freedom suppressed.
