Resumo
This paper comprises an examination on sexuality, as well as how it is comprehended by educators. Thus, we intend to clarify and discuss some conceptions and concepts disseminated throughout History about the human sexuality, as well as concerned to the institutionalization of education of the abovementioned issue. This became an educational policy, in Brazil, through the Parametros Curriculares Nacionais - PCNs (National Curriculum Parameters) (BRASIL, 1998). To do so, we unveiled concepts and ideas from various authors who studied it in order to offer readers a reflection over the experienced obstacles when dealing with such a polemic subject in the classrooms. Based on the self-evident truth that sexuality is inherent to life and taking into account the perceptions of an individual about it during his/her lifetime, it is extremely crucial to analyze how such matter is approached in an educational environment. Hence, we expect that this article may contribute to several other scholarly papers and researches about the aforementioned topic
