Resumo
This work sought to understand the theme of homosexuality from the perspective of Behavior Analysis (BA), thus presenting reflections on their positions and productions in relation to homosexuality. Therefore, the topic was discussed from ethical and political implications present in the BA and finally, we present the scenario of the Brazilian academic production in order to raise more ethical and policies reflections for the field. So far, we have identified that the set of knowledge and practices of BA has already been used without reflection and criticism in treatments for reversing homosexuality. Such treatments assumed that homosexuality was a deviant and pathological conduct that could be modified by aversive behavioral techniques. Thus, we seek to identify how the BA in Brazil dealt with this issue through its academic productions from 1999 to 2019, a period in which Brazilian Psychology, through Resolution CFP 001/1999, materialized its favorable view of the struggles for diversity thus determining that homosexuality should not be treated as a pathology. This research has theoretical and bibliographic because in it a historical and contextual questioning, as well as a study and categorization of texts in order to explore what others authors have already said about homosexuality. The selected texts were analyzed from the following categories: 1) Definition and explanation of homosexuality; 2) Definition and explanation of prejudice against homosexuals; 3) Dialogue with other authors and areas; and 4) Ethical and political considerations. In general, it is argued that homosexuality is not the problem to be faced, but coercive culture against homosexuals.
