Realizaram-se seis estudos de casos com reclusas e, como instrumentos, utilizaram-se entrevistas semiestruturadas. Os dados foram organizados a partir dos seguintes eixos temáticos: violências múltiplas nos relacionamentos afetivo-sexuais; abandono, repressão e fortalecimento dos relacionamentos na prisão; as visitas íntimas; a repressão das necessidades sexuais. Os resultados evidenciaram a ênfase na dimensão afetiva da sexualidade pelas participantes e violências múltiplas em suas vidas. As visitas íntimas, embora previstas legalmente, apresentam restrições para que sejam realizadas. A forma como vivenciam a sexualidade no cárcere reflete a desigualdade de gênero, a situação desumana, e as violências de gênero e estatal na prisão. Em suma, demonstrou-se a primazia da vigilância e os obstáculos para o exercício da sexualidade na instituição prisional, desvelando as relações de poder neste contexto.Departamento de Sociologia - UnB/SOL2022-08-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionhttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/sociedade/article/view/4155010.1590/s0102-6992-202237020007Sociedade e Estado; Vol. 37 No. 02 (2022); 531-549Sociedade e Estado; Vol. 37 Núm. 02 (2022); 531-549Sociedade e Estado; v. 37 n. 02 (2022); 531-5491980-54620102-6992reponame:Sociedade e Estadoinstname:Universidade de Brasília (UnB)instacron:UNBporhttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/sociedade/article/view/41550/34161Copyright (c) 2022 Sociedade e Estadohttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0/deed.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessFigueiredo, Ana Cristina CostaStengel, MárciaOliveira, Alexandra2022-08-15T11:41:33Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/41550Revistahttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/sociedade/indexPUBhttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/sociedade/oaiportaldeperiodicos@bce.unb.br||revistasol@unb.br1980-54620102-6992opendoar:2022-08-15T11:41:33Sociedade e Estado - Universidade de Brasília (UnB)false
