Abstract

DE SOUZA BARRETO, Victor Hugo. Avá [online]. 2017, n.31, pp.119-142. ISSN 1851-1694.

One of the proposals of this text is to point out how care is one of the central elements present both in the discourse and in the actions observed between my interlocutors, adherents of sexual practices considered as “at risk”. I take as the object of analysis the sexual practices framed as behaviors for the prevention of diseases, the care of oneself and the evaluation of the “risks” -or the absence/ lack of them- like social and subjective experiences, seeking to investigate the relations between pleasure and risk existing on the “sex scripts” present among men who frequent commercial spaces or organize sex-related events among them.

Keywords : Sexuality; Prevention; Disease; Health.
