The study is based on qualitative research in a school in the city of São Paulo with adolescents aged 14 to 17 years. The objective was to learn about discursive practices on sexuality among students. The theoretical methodological approach is to produce everyday meanings, a way of working with language. Data were collected in focus groups, and, for the content of the narratives, we adopted a critical discourse analysis. Violations of human and sexual rights have emerged, giving rise to the need to promote public policies for the care of adolescents aimed at combating harassment, sexual violence and discrimination.
