| Sumario: | This article, anchored in Critical Applied Linguistics (MUNIZ, 2016), questions colonial discourses on gender and sexualities in Brazil and highlights the importance of bringing these discussions into English language classes.

Netnography (TAFARELO, 2014) was used as a tool for data collection, and the autoethnographic method (ADAMS; ELLIS; JONES, 2017) enabled important processes of understanding and self-reflection. |
