Abstract

This article is a reflection which pervades the theme about invisibility or hiding of sexuality in the nursing care practice, or besides, of the nurses themselves, leading to questions which hold this bearing, how it was created and what maintains it.The approach presented here permits to assure that this theme goes beyond technical informative itself and, at the same time, is revealed in the nurses's cultural diverseness, giving the opportunity to instrument people for the being and the doingin nurging which provides an experience of life much more qualitatively meaningful.
