Resumo: Relações sexuais são influenciadas por normas, valores cristãos, cultura, política e economia, fazendo com que a mulher, ao longo da história, só as praticasse após o casamento. Entretanto, muitas mudanças ocorreram, sendo perceptíveis, atualmente, transformações conceituais e práticas no comportamento sexual das mulheres. Frente ao exposto, objetivou-se analisar as representações sociais das mulheres acerca das relações sexuais. Tratou-se de uma pesquisa descritiva, com abordagem qualitativa, cuja amostra foi composta por 60 mulheres, divididas em quatro gerações, sendo 15 adolescentes, 15 adultas jovens, 15 mulheres na meia-idade e 15 idosas, que responderam a um questionário. Os dados foram analisados por meio técnica de Análise de Conteúdo Temática proposta por Bardin. Observou-se que as relações sexuais foram representadas consensualmente entre as gerações através da afetividade e do prazer. As mulheres representaram as relações sexuais por meio dos aspectos biopsicossociais que compõem a sexualidade humana, apresentando semelhanças e divergências entre as gerações.

Social Representation of sexual relations: a transgenerational study among womenAbstract: Sexual relations are influenced by norms, Christian values, culture, politics, and economy, and that is why women, throughout history, only practiced sex after marriage. However, many changes have occurred, and now there are conceptual and practical transformations in the sexual behavior of women. This text presents a qualitative research aiming at analyzing women's social representations of sexual relations. The sample was composed by 60 women. The 60 women in the sample divided into 4 generations: 15 teenagers, 15 young adults, 15 middle-age women, and 15 old women. The qualitative information was analyzed by Bardin's Thematic Content Analysis. It was found that sexual relations were represented, consensually between generations, by affection and pleasure. Women represented sexual relations through the biopsychosocial aspects that compose sexuality, presenting similarities and differences among generations.
