LGBT Tourism (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transsexual) is characterized by the public DINK, pink money, and LGBT Pride Parades, fragile representations in the face of the opportunity of the segment. This important public for the market suffers little academic attention since there is a low scale of scientific production on the subject in national and international journals, which justifies performing a bibliometric analysis of the dissertations defended between 1997 and 2019 in the Graduate Programs of Tourism of twelve national universities. Thus, the objective is to analyze the seven dissertations that address LGBT Tourism, presenting their main contributions; as well as establishing a network with the main theoretical references of the theme. It concludes that research on LGBT and Tourism should be stimulated by constituting a promising instrument that fills the social, economic, and biopolitical gaps that encompass the tourism aspects.
