LGBTphobia is a characteristic of Brazil when data on this type of violence are analyzed. For a long time, this theme was neglected at many social levels, including the legal and governmental spheres. A response to the violence experienced by Brazilian LGBT+ people has been tried many times through specific laws, however, only after many years did this advance happen. Then, Brazil became the 43rd country to criminalize LGBTphobia. Even with such progress, LGBTphobia rates in Brazil continued to be alarming, constituting a social, health and legal issue. In view of these factors, this study sought to analyze the social conceptions about criminalization among Brazilian homosexual men and heterosexual men. Based on the analysis performed, contrasting differences were noted between the two groups. It is expected that this study can provide technical and scientific data to possible interventions on the problems exposed
