Resumo
The effectiveness of health promotion actions to homeless adolescents entails the
understanding of different power relationships that interrelate in daily life, including those of
gender. The objective of this paper is to describe and analyze how gender manifests in homeless
adolescents. Qualitative research of strategic social type was carried out in two institutions for
homeless adolescents, where 13 adolescents were interviewed. Data collected were submitted
to Meaning Interpretation Method, enabling the identification and discussion about the prevalence
and impact of gender hegemonic conceptions in the routine of homeless adolescents, marked by
vulnerability/disaffiliation process, mainly in relation to dimension of feminine sexuality control
and to valorization of masculine function as material provider. It is assumed that gender relations
are present, are built and signified for homeless adolescents in their everyday experiences. This
process of social phenomena signification occur within the social and historic contexts in which
they are inserted.
