By means of semi-structured interviews conducted with 10 queer individuals participating in a local LGBT social movement, this study sought to understand the phenomenon of violence in LGBT experiences. Content Analysis revealed three categories: 1. violence in multiple spaces and stages of life; 2. echoes of violence throughout life; and 3.support and coping mechanisms. The itinerary of violence started at home, within the family, and spread to institutions, generating life-long physical and psychological consequences, as they are also produced in the unintelligibility of their bodies by health professionals.
