Resumo: In this article, we reflect upon sexual practices, contraception and voluntary abortion among low-income women from Salvador based on the results of a survey conducted to identify and analyze processes of women’s empowerment. This involves making strategic decisions and, as such, taking greater control over their bodies and lives. While following this notion of empowerment, we sought to learn how (353) women of different generations residing in Plataforma, in the outskirts of the city, identify and have made use of the resources and conditions at hand to make strategic choices. In this discussion, we limit ourselves to analyzing quantitative data on women’s sexual and reproductive lives by focusing on: a) age at first sexual relation; b) number of partners; c) importance of sex and orgasm to women; d) habit of masturbation; e) safe sex; f) contraceptive methods; and g) voluntary abortion.

Por empoderamento, entende-se aqui a conquista do controle sobre “nossos corpos e nossas vidas”, incluindo-se aí o exercício pleno da sexualidade. Dentro dessa perspectiva, procurou-se conhecer como (353) mulheres de diferentes gerações, residentes no Subúrbio de Plataforma, vêm avançando nesse sentido. Oferece-se, nos limites deste trabalho, apenas a análise dos dados quantitativos referentes à sua vida sexual e reprodutiva em termos de: a) idade na primeira relação sexual; b) número de parceiros; c) importância do sexo e do orgasmo para as mulheres; d) hábito da masturbação; e) controle sobre o corpo e sexo seguro; f) métodos contraceptivos; g) aborto provocado.FCL-UNESP Laboratório Editorial2012-04-04info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.fclar.unesp.br/estudos/article/view/4928Estudos de Sociologia; v. 17 n. 32 (2012): Dossiê: Aborto, objeto da pesquisa social1982-47181414-0144reponame:Estudos de Sociologiainstname:Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP)instacron:UNESPporhttps://periodicos.fclar.unesp.br/estudos/article/view/4928/4117Copyright (c) 2012 Estudos de Sociologiainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSardenberg, Cecilia M.
