Se evaluó la prevalencia de las identidades sexuales en hombres y mujeres de diferentes generaciones sobre la base de las cinco categorías (heterosexuales, predominantemente heterosexuales, bisexuales, predominantemente homosexuales y homosexuales) y la ideación y conductas homoeróticas fueran evaluadas en heterosexuales. Los datos fueron recolectados a través de cuestionarios de autorrelato en un sitio de pesquisa en la Internet. Se recogieron y analizaron datos de 41.873 brasileños. Del total, el 78,2% de hombres y 89,8% de las mujeres dicen que son heterosexuales, la minoría sexual más prevalente era homosexual (4,6%) y predominantemente heterosexual (4,1%). Ideación y conductas homoeróticas en heterosexuales fueran comunes y las diferencias entre hombres y mujeres fueran robustas. Identidades non heterosexuales fueron más prevalentes en las generaciones más jóvenes.
