Our objective is to discuss the psychosocial dynamics of urban violence in the experiences of adolescent lesbians living in the outskirts of Fortaleza, who are accused of committing infractions and considered “involved” in criminal factions. To this end, narrative interviews with five lesbian adolescents enrolled in criminal factions were analyzed. The results and discussions show that the lesbian condition differentially exposes the adolescents to precariousness, placing them in a condition of greater vulnerability to conflicts, death, restricted access to territories, and police repression. Furthermore, we analyze the affective relationships that these adolescents have with drug faction members and the precarious condition to which their bodies are submitted. We conclude that the social transformations of crime produce psychosocial effects on their life trajectories.
