The proposal of this Thesis was to investigate the subjective aspects that are related to parenthood among the young parents that belong to the middle class urban population, in the city of Belém, Estate of Pará, who are living or lived through this experience. Due to the theoretical opacity, which is practical as well, the paternity event in young ages, the work shows an centrality of references that identify issues about the pregnancy amongst those Young parents as an exclusive female problem. At the same time, it was discussed in which way this phenomena can be shaped, among other things, in relation with gender and social class, which revealed very heterogeneous paths and profiles. The deconstruction of ideas coming from the common sense about young parenthood, with the support of the ethnographic method, that gives the voice, or better saying, listens to the young male parents and guided by an anthropological look, shows how those actors have been contemporarily constructing their role as protagonists in the parenthood event.
