With the general objective of understanding the subjective constitution of lesbian identity, with the specific objectives of discussing the processes of invisibility of lesbianism, debating the forms of repression of lesbian experiences in Western societies and problematizing the construction of gender and sexuality devices today , this dissertation seeks to build a broad overview of such processes. To achieve this, the methodological proposal followed the principles of cartography, which allowed the analysis of the phenomena covered, based on ethnographic reports and the logbook. Initially, a conceptual discussion was held on the relationship between the device of sexuality and lesbian women, to make it possible to understand power relations, which serve as sexual, political and religious regulations. With regard to ethnographic reports, the first presents discussions about the promotion of a mini-course, entitled “Psychology and Lesbianity”, based on my experiences with the participants and the exchanges that took place. The second ethnographic report was developed from the debate I participated in, about the film “The bad example of Cameron Post”, carried out at the invitation of the Regional Psychology Council of Mato Grosso do Sul (CRP14) as part of the Yellow September campaign, which they sought to discuss the mental health of the LGBTQIAP+ population. The third and final topic is constructed from a brief digital ethnography of journalistic articles on the issue of therapeutic communities and their relationship with Brazilian lesbian women. From these three ethnographically inspired cartographies, it was possible to identify the mechanisms in which the hegemonic discourses of heteronormativity and heterosexism influence the construction of lesbian subjectivity, including reinforcing the maintenance of behaviors and values ​​that contribute to the perpetuation of repression and discrimination. Finally, the work seeks to advance the issues listed to become a form of contribution to debates on lesbianism and related phenomena, given the still insufficient number of productions published on the topic in Brazil.
