ENTRE LAÇOS E AMARRAS: Uma revisão integrativa sobre a influência do ambiente familiar nas vivências lgbtqia+

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: This article aims to carry out an integrative review of scientific production regarding the possibility of the family environment interfering in the experience of the identity of LGBTQIA+ people, with the aim of understanding the relationship between these elements. To this end, articles published in the LILACS, Scielo, PubMed, VHL and Google Scholar databases were selected. Using the PRISMA method, twenty articles published between 2019 and 2023 were analyzed. After qualitative synthesis, the results found were categorized into four thematic axes: Family Support, Family Violence, Internalized Homophobia, Concealment of Sexual Orientation and/or Gender Identity. It was found that family support directly affects the physical and mental health of LGBTQIA+ people and family ties, and that family violence reveals a lack of support. Furthermore, the results showed that the reproduction of homonegativity and LGBTphobia in family environments results in the internalization of homofobia, in addition to leading many individuals to hide their sexual orientations and/or gender identities that deviate from cis heteronormativity.
