Considering that the practice of revenge pornography is pervaded by gender relations, this study has as a theoretical reference the gender perspective, as proposed by Scott (1995), aiming to analyze the experiences of young women who have suffered exposure and humiliation via the internet for their sexual practices and how this experience repercussions for their mental health. The exhibition and humiliation of women for their sexual practices is known by the english expression slut shaming (without translation to portuguese), highlighting among its practices the porn revenge, known in Brazil by the term "pornografia de vingança". The porn revenge consists in the publication and sharing, without the consent of the victim, of videos or photos containing nudity or sexual acts. This phenomenon appears as psychological violence against a woman, causing serious damage to their mental health and social life. Participated young women, over 18, who had experienced some form of exposure and humiliation on the internet for their sexual practices. As research instruments were used an online questionnaire and an interview. The online questionnaire was answered by nine women, and it was found that the offender was, mostly, a partner or former partner. Among those who had intimate material exposed on the internet, the majority stated that they had consented to the production of the material, but not the disclosure by the recipient / partner or by third parties.Those who did not have intimate material exposed on the internet but suffered some kind of online exposure stated that they suffered from exposing reports (true or otherwise) about their sex life had intimate material that was not their attributed to them, or a false profile was created on pornographic social sites / social networks with their personal photos and information. Some participants also suffered from online exposure threats, in order to coerce them to don’t report a crime (rape, for example) or to coerce them into performing libidinal acts / maintaining an affective relationship. The material collected with the interviews was analyzed through the thematic-categorial content analysis method. Four interviews were carried out, from which five thematic categories emerged: Characterization of the Experience; Consequences; Mental health; Professional Support, and; Representations of Slut Shaming. The observed results confirm that the experience of online violence causes damages to the victim in their social, Family and school life and in their mental health. Is highlighted in the contents of the interviews the lack of preparation of the professionals responsible for receiving and caring for such women, as police and lawyers, but especially psychologists and psychiatrists, bringing a question as to whether psychologists are in fact prepared to welcome women victims of a psychological violence so impactful in their lives, but at the same time endowed with invisibility.
