Factores que influenciam a escolha de parceiro sexual afectivo e a vivência da conjugalidade entre um grupo de homossexuais da Cidade de Maputo

Abstract

In an affective sexual relationship with homosexuals there are different genders. These genders play different roles and are sometimes guided through roles established by society, hence the influence of society or even “heterosexuality” in homosexual relationships. The core of the research is to look at the factors that influence the choice of a partner affective sexuality and the experience of conjugality among homosexuals, as it is emphasized that the issue gender (active / passive) is what marks the constitution of a homosexual relationship forgetting human creativity to accommodate their choices, because in a affective sexual involvement among homosexuals there is a negotiation in the roles. The field of sexuality is marked by essentialism and social constructivism. The essentialism looks at sexuality for the purpose of reproduction while social constructivism looks at sexuality in historical and cultural terms, problematizing the issue of sexual instinct. In this way, social constructivism instills that sexuality is mediated by historical factors and cultural factors and that identical factors can have different meanings. The predisposition to succeed in a relationship depends on negotiation in terms of roles and the surrender of members on issues such as fidelity, companionship, complicity and trust, being essential for everything to work out and for it to evolve into a important phase, cohabitation, whether permanent or “definitive” and that in this phase the behaviors of individuals are no longer stratified, observe the ambiguity of the roles.
