Abstract

This dissertation deals with simultaneous conjugality, also known in the doctrine as parallel unions, that is, when the spouse (in the marriage) or partner (in the stable union) maintains, in addition to the family constituted within the law, another family. To speak of this type of arrangement is to look at the diversity of functioning of family behaviors in contemporary times and, at the same time, to analyze the Brazilian normative structure, since there is no express legal provision for the protection of concrete cases, which reach the courts, from all over the world. country, seeking legal effectiveness and rights. In the same vein, interviewing women who lived in these relationships is to pay attention to personal issues, feelings, life experiences. Based on these observations, the general objective of this work is to analyze simultaneous conjugal unions under a social, legal and interpersonal relationships context. The theme is presented in a multidisciplinary way, requiring a qualitative approach to format an exploratory and descriptive research, using contemporary legal bibliographies, jurisprudence, legislation, opinions of jurists, periodicals, magazine articles and casuistry, but with relevant forays into bibliographies in other areas of the social sciences such as sociology, anthropology and psychology. The research is supported by a qualitative approach, following a case study model. The study is presented in the form of three articles. The first article will bring a social approach on the theme, initially presenting the theoretical bases about the formation of the family throughout the history of civilization, and, afterwards, it will encourage the debate on monogamous and polygamous models, in particular, on the existence or not of a unique and ideal model for love relationships, presenting, at the end, a portrait of polygamy and family simultaneity in Brazil and in the world. The second article proposes to analyze the legal aspects of conjugal simultaneity in the Brazilian system. The third article focuses on the experience of two women, over the age of 18, who lived a lasting marital relationship, understood here for more than 05 years, with men who lived simultaneously in a different nucleus while they were with them, and who had children with these interviewed women, identified from indication (snowball method). Questionnaires were applied to the interviewees, using a semi- structured script, applied in the form of an interview. The experiences of these subjects of these legal relations were analyzed, in this case, the woman, seeking to understand how these women, belonging to simultaneous families, perceive their condition and lived this experience. It was possible to verify the existence of practical cases of parallel unions, lived as simultaneous families, where women went through this experience with love, pain, strength, courage and dignity. It was also noticed the need for legal protection for the subjects of this relationship.
