We present a set of reflections and conceptual definitions around the difficulties to approach an emergent academic theme, the link between sexual diversity, indigenous men and vulnerability to hiv/aids. Although new in the academic field in Mexico and Latin America, this theme is already present as a social demand of ngo in many countries as recent forums and meetings on the subject demonstrate. We have used participant observation for this matter. The reflections on vulnerability and sexual diversity get enriched in this paper with preliminary results of an anthropological research that involved the realization of four life histories of indigenous men. We conclude by showing the importance of classist, racist and sexual ideologies not only in the framing of the discussion, but also in the construction of interactions, desires and sexual practices, especially when migration is involved.
