Same-sex conjugal relationships are factual in the Brazilian society, however, such couples live the impossibility of access to marriage. The non-acquisition of rights by the LGBTT (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transvestite and transgender) reinforces the subaltern position of these individuals and the logics of gender policy. Due to these factors, the conjugal relation of these couples imply more difficulties to acquire the objectives of relational satisfaction, since it falls into the matters of punitive, exculpatory, and discriminating states, tolerance fomenters, disrespect and inequality inciters. Considering the importance of knowledge development about minority groups for the social development, this research aims at knowing what couples in a conjugal relationship with a same-sex person think about conjugality and how they describe their relationships, in the affective and legal dimensions, as well as the implications of these variables between themselves and in the quality of the conjugal relation. In order to understand this phenomenon, the Queer Theory was used in the analyses. At that, this thesis was organized into four sections. In the first section there is the theoretical discussion of the interaction among the politics, social processes and the constitution of the individual and its relations.Two factors were used: (1) the process of formation and meaning of the individual and social identity and citizenship; and (2) the relational, social and legal aspects of the institution of marriage. Subsequently, in the second section, through a thematic essay, there is an attempt to prove the thesis that the affective and sexual relationships between people of the same sex can and need to be considered as conjugality, for they are factual and they associate with the human rights of LGBTT population. It is also argued that the focus in the study designs on conjugality must start from the relationship, instead of primarily or compulsively from sexuality.The third section presents the study developed from the qualitative exploratory-descriptive approach, through documentary analysis, that had as objective to know the characteristics of blogs and the contents of the communications published in the context of the blogosphere about the subject of the affective and love of long term duration relationships between gays and between lesbians, including the experiences and the opinions on the subject. 24 blogs had been selected, and the data referring to the classification of blogs, to the framing of the content of the messages, as well as of the content of the interactivity had been analyzed through the Bardin s Content Analysis proposal.The last section contains the second study of this thesis, aimed at knowing the conjugal relationships between same-sex people in its depth, describing the experiences of these couples, through interviews with couples formed of same sex-people . A qualitative study was developed, with exploratory and descriptive study design, through in-depth interviews with six couples, which had been chosen by the convenience criterion. For the collection of the data the interview narratives were used, and the methodology of the speech analysis was used for interpretation. As for analysis technique the Method of the Explicitation of the Underlying Speech was used.
