Gender-based violence is an important topic for studies on sex education. Debating the theme in the macro-region of Latin America and the Caribbean is even more important when it proposes to think about research paths for young researchers. This is the purpose of this short text of a bibliographic nature: to indicate possibilities for a study on the historicity of gender violence in the macro-region. Two investigative possibilities are proposed: a starting point in official international documents; another starting point are the researches that speak of gender violence, since the 1970s with theories that tried to explain gender violence, such as patriarchy, southern epistemologies, as examples. The study concludes with referrals and incentives for these investigations in an attempt to find an important gap: gender violence before the European presence, which demands that a third possibility of studies in the area of Sex Education be guided by ethno-history and anthropology. The third possibility is still a construction to be developed in the area of Sex Education.
