Abstract
The LGBT people face difficulties and barriers that hinder their access to health services. The lack of preparation and sensitivity of the professionals, in this context, are some of the elements that reiterate the health inequities and the vulnerability of these bodies. In order to understand this phenomenon, we interviewed 15 Primary Health Care workers and analyzed their speeches following the Foucauldian discourse analysis perspective. The results showed that although the professionals know the theme, they use discursive strategies, which veil their prejudices and resistance, making it difficult to recognize the possibilities of the agency in the transformation of this reality. The mobilization of categories related to sexual identities and rights in their discourses indicates displacements in the contemporary sexuality regime that should be considered in health education interventions. The implication of each one in the materialization of the differences that mark the sexual field proved to be, in this sense, fundamental to the discussion of care forms that are truly welcoming and do not reinforce the inequalities of bodies that challenge binarism and social heteronormativity.
