Abstract:

This article analyzes the changes and continuities in the search criteria for partners by homosexual menthe impact of the HIV-AIDS epidemic in the city of São Paulo. Thus, the study compares two distinct historical moments: between 1979 and 1981 (pre-epidemic) and 2015 to 2017 (post-epidemic). In the first period, the source incorporated 120 classifieds collectedthe Lampião da Esquina newspaper and in the second period, the preferences and criteria applied in the search for partners were analyzed using geolocalized applications, based on 120 on-line profiles. The data allow us to affirm that, in the 1970s to the 1980s, there was the search for the \"discreet\", while the sexual panic created in the deadliest period of the AIDS epidemic boosted the use of the Internet by homosexuals in search of partners less likely to be infected with HIV, the \"out of the scene (gay)”. Since then, the search for the \"discreet and out of the scene\" has consolidated itself by molding the body\'s ideals and conduct that govern the current on-line sex market in which homosexualsSão Paulo are part.
