This qualitative investigation was guided by the desire to know how topics of gender and sexuality are included in the preparation of secondary teachers in an online mathematics teaching major at a university in the state of São Paulo, Brazil. The investigation focused on the initial preparation of these prospective teachers to properly deal with issues of gender and sexual diversity, and sought to delineate the conceptual aspects of gender and sexuality present in the pedagogical project of program, identifying moments and spaces for such preparation.
