SUMMARY:

Gay effeminacy is still an academic topic that has received little attention in the Brazilian context, that is, most studies do not propose to investigate effeminacy and the elements associated with it as an indispensable analytical category in review studies and/or empirical, especially when considering the thematic profile of the urban experience of these subjects. Considering this gap, this research aimed to investigate the urban experience of effeminate gay men in city spaces. For this, an electronic form was applied to 240 self-identified gay participants, which consisted of 51 multiplechoice questions, organized around three axes (everyday life, sociability and social isolation). Among the 240 participants, 43 subjects consented to participate in the second stage of the research, which consisted of applying the SRQ-20. Among the 43 participants, 8 self-identified gay effeminate subjects were interviewed, composing the third stage of the research. The fourth, and last, stage of the research consisted of a Conversation Group with 5 self-identified gay effeminate participants. It was found that, in general, homosexual urban experiences are crossed by violence, discrimination and prejudice, reverberating in fear of moving around the city. It was revealed that, whether in public or private spaces, whether inside or outside the LGBTQIA+ community, there is the imposition of the cis-hetero-homonormative standard. This imposition places effeminate gays in a more precarious way in urban spaces, since they escape even more normative social expectations and urban planning. However, being effeminate gay does not imply passivity in the face of these oppressions, since fear finds resistance in individual and collective appropriations by the LGBTQIA+ community, giving rise to counter-uses in the various spaces of the city they occupy.
