Abstract

This study aims to present possible contributions of psychoanalysis - especially stemming from the ideas of Hungarian Sandor Ferenczi - to the implementation of emancipatory sexual education in educational processes with the goal of promoting respect to sexual and gender diversity as well as of breaking with violence produced and replicated by cisheteronormativity. In a dialog with psychoanalytical concepts, we discuss the unhealthy hypocrisy that still hegemonically permeates educational processes regarding sexuality and gender, intensified by conservative, far-right movements in the Brazilian political scenario. We also reflect on ways to problematize and break with silencing in the school day-to-day, breaking down pedagogical beliefs and illusions that institute sexualities and ways of being and existing as dogma and normal. We understand that psychoanalytical ethics - when questioning desire as well as repressions and abjections - collaborates to intensify processes and positions that promote transformations in the context of sexual education.
