Abstract

This article is a part of a research focusing on the relationship among child-prostitution, health-sickness-process linked to sexuality and violence; the three categories found in the environment of street girls. This paper, however, only deals with health-sickness-process linked to sexuality revealed by the girls themselves. After the considerations about the research as a whole and about sexuality in general, the street girls are characterized in their social scenery. Within that scenery, data about sexuality are analyzed. Based on this analysis, the author concluded, among other aspects, that the education is necessary to enable Public Health to focus on this matter.
