	<span style="line-height:1.5;">The jealousy is a reaction to a real or imagined
threat perceived at an estimated relationship. The jealousy is present to a
greater or lesser extent in all at some point in life. This study aims to
understand how jealousy is experienced by homosexual couples, identifying if
such mechanisms are similar or different of
the heterosexual jealousy. To address this objective, we performed a
systematic review of the literature on this subject. It can be observed that
jealousy is present in affective-sexual gay relationships, being a protective

jealousy and identify if cultural conditions affect the manifesta</span><span style="line-height:1.5;">tion of it
among homosexuals.</span>
