| Sumario: | The sexual development of adolescents is implied by physical processes, acceptance of the body image, discovery of sexual needs, personality development, learning about interpersonal relationships, and the establishment of one’s own system of sexual values. Therefore, it is important to study the perception of the first sexual relationship, corresponding to the elaboration or expression of a judgement from experience from which beliefs, social norms, power systems and previous meanings regulate the behavior. The type of investigation is descriptive, with a transversal design in which the main variables correspond to the perception of the first sexual relationship in adolescents, and the associated variables are: V1- cognitive dimension, V2- affective dimension and V3- behavior dimension. These were analyzed according to the following cathegories: a) the beginning of sex life, b) pregnancy and contraceptive methods, c) sexually transmitted infections and d) social networks. For this, semi-structured interviews were made with five adolescents from the state of Hidalgo who had their first sexual relationship, analyzing the intrinsic content vertically and horizontally. In this investigation the behavior of the first sexual relationship was identified, as well as the influence of social networks. Adolescents are found to be constantly changing their roles and stereotypes concerning their sexuality and sexual practices, and even when they have information they do not perceive the risks nor preventive behavior. |
