The availability of information about population minorities, in this case, the LGBTQIA+ population (Lesbians, Gays, Bisexual, Transvestite/Transsexual, Queer, Intersex, and Asexual), and the possible intersections with other variables on population bases is essential for understanding the similarities and specificities of the reality experienced by these groups, and the establishment of focused public policies. In this sense, this paper aims to reflect on the problems related to research about the sex and gender orientations/performances and, consequently, the lack of information on this topic available in population databases. From the inclusion of the question about sexual orientation in the 2019 National Health Survey database, despite the limitations, this paper presents possible opportunities for investigations on the topic from different perspectives.
关于人口少数群体（在这种情况下，是 LGBTQIA+群体，即女同性恋者、男同性恋者、双性恋者、易装癖者/变性者、酷儿、间性人和无性人）的信息的可用性，以及这些群体在人口基础上与其他变量的可能交叉点，对于理解这些群体所经历的现实的相似性和特殊性以及制定有针对性的公共政策至关重要。在这个意义上，本文旨在反思与性别和性取向/表现研究相关的问题，以及因此在人口数据库中缺乏关于这个主题的信息。从 2019 年国家健康调查数据库中包含有关性取向的问题这一点来看，尽管存在限制，但本文从不同角度提出了关于该主题的调查的可能机会。
