 AB    This article is based on a study carried out in Sao Paolo, Brazil, from
       1983 to 1986 among male homosexuals. It deals with the various practices
       and life-styles which constitute the homosexual world in Sao Paulo, and
       questions regarding AIDS. An analysis is made of the contrasting
       biographies of two patients suffering from the AIDS virus. The emphasis
       will be placed on the evolution of the illness and the changes in values
       that occur during this period. The ways in which the sexual life-style
       adopted prior to the illness influences the individual social course or
       mobility [i.e., trajectory] of the inflicted person will also be
       illustrated.
