Resumo: | This research aimed to understand the older women interpretations and experiences attributed about gender relations and sexuality in their intimate relationships. Twelve women attending an Elderly Care Unit in a Minas Gerais/Brazil city were interviewed. From a thematic content analysis three categories were established: Influences of sex education, Standardization of sexuality, and Resignification about sexuality during the aging process. The main results highlighted that the participants received a morally rigid education that reinforced traditional gender roles (double sexual morality) generating misinformation, fears, shame, uncertainties and doubts about femininity and sexuality that, however, could be reformulated during aging due to new experiences and knowledge and, thus, their meanings and experiences moved from gender and sexuality traditional conceptions to their questionings. |

Twelve women attending an Elderly Care Unit in a Minas Gerais/Brazil city were interviewed. From a thematic content analysis three categories were established: Influences of sex education, Standardization of sexuality, and Resignification about sexuality during the aging process. The main results highlighted that the participants received a morally rigid education that reinforced traditional gender roles (double sexual morality) generating misinformation, fears, shame, uncertainties and doubts about femininity and sexuality that, however, could be reformulated during aging due to new experiences and knowledge and, thus, their meanings and experiences moved from gender and sexuality traditional conceptions to their questionings.El objetivo de esta investigación fue comprender los significados y las experiencias que las mujeres mayores atribuyen a las relaciones de género y a la sexualidad en sus relaciones íntimas. Se entrevistó a doce mujeres que asistían a una Unidad de Atención al Anciano en una ciudad de Minas Gerais/Brasil. A partir de un análisis de contenido temático se establecieron tres categorías: Influencia de la educación sexual, Normalización de la sexualidad, y Resignificaciones de la sexualidad durante el envejecimiento. Los principales resultados destacaran que los participantes recibieron una educación moralmente rígida que reforzaba los roles tradicionales de género generando desinformación, temores, vergüenza, incertidumbres y dudas sobre la feminidad y la sexualidad que fueran reformulados en el envejecimiento debido a las nuevas experiencias y conocimientos. Así, sus significados y experiencias pasaron de concepciones tradicionales de género y sexualidad a cuestionamientos.Esta pesquisa objetivou compreender os significados e experiências atribuídos por idosas às relações de gênero e à sexualidade vivenciadas em seus relacionamentos íntimos. Doze frequentadoras de uma Unidade de Atenção ao Idoso (UAI) de uma cidade no interior de Minas Gerais foram entrevistadas. A partir de uma análise de conteúdo temática foram estabelecidas três categorias: Influência da educação para a sexualidade, Normatização da sexualidade e Ressignificações sobre a sexualidade. Os principais resultados destacaram que as participantes receberam uma educação (formal e informal) moralmente rígida que reforçou papéis tradicionais de gênero (dupla moral sexual), gerando desinformações, medos, vergonhas, incertezas e dúvidas sobre a feminilidade e a sexualidade que, todavia, puderam ser em parte reformuladas durante o envelhecimento devido às novas experiências e conhecimentos (com a participação na UAI) e, assim, seus significados e experiências transitaram entre concepções tradicionais e questionamentos das relações de gênero e sexualidade.Editora Mackenzie2021-05-31info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersiontextoapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttp://editorarevistas.mackenzie.br/index.php/ptp/article/view/1294810.5935/1980-6906/ePTPSP12948The Journal Of Psychology: Theory and Practice ; Vol. 23 No. 2 (2021); ePTPSP12948Revista Psicología: Teoría y Práctica; Vol. 23 Núm. 2 (2021); ePTPSP12948Revista Psicologia: Teoria e Prática; v. 23 n. 2 (2021); ePTPSP129481980-69061516-3687reponame:Psicologia (Universidade Presbiteriana Mackenzie.
