Abstract: The family structure has undergone profound transformation in recent decades. The old traditional and patriarchal concept has been gradually replaced by new family arrangements, especially those based on affection. Among these new forms of family formation, same-sex adoption stands out, as a result of the recognition of stable unions and civil marriage between people of the same sex in the Brazilian legal system. The issue, which for many years was invisible in the legal and social debate, has been gaining prominence in light of the evolution of human rights, the fight for equality and the search for dignity for sexual minorities.
