Currently, with the advancement of technology and access to digital resources, the number of useful tools for teaching science has diversified and grown. However, teaching resources such as the textbook (LD) remain one of the most important and accessible for teachers. Therefore, it is worth highlighting that the quality of the content present in the textbook is an essential factor for the quality of teaching practice. In this sense, sexuality is an essential topic in anyone’s life. From an early age, individuals are exposed to questions and discoveries about their own sexual identity. Therefore, it is extremely important that this subject is addressed appropriately in textbooks, which are one of the main sources of knowledge for teenagers in their final years of elementary school. Therefore, the main objective of this study is to present research developed through the analysis of three textbooks used by public elementary schools in the state of Pernambuco. The research aimed to analyze how the theme “sexuality” is referred to in elementary school textbooks (LD) for the 8th year, adopted by a public school in the state of Pernambuco. Given the findings, it was evident that textbooks initially focus on exposing content that predominantly values the biological aspects of human beings. By focusing exclusively on the biological aspects of sexuality, textbooks reinforce gender stereotypes, norms and traditional patterns of behavior, contributing to the maintenance of a conservative and limited view on the subject. However, LDs were found that included content related to sexuality within social and psychological aspects.
