From the field of sociology, this paper aims to analyze social representations of love among young lesbians of Lima’s upper class. The focus is on how their trajectories, families and self-identification influence the construction of such representations. Nine interviews were conducted with young lesbians from the upper class to answer the research question. Two approaches to love were found: from romantic to confluent love and towards confluent love. Moreover, it was found that this love holds three secrets: the secret of the inner world, the secret that is kept from their families and the environment and the one that is hidden from their partners. The aforementioned is linked, among other factors, to the specificity of being lesbians from Lima’s upper class.El amor ha sido materia de discusión en diversas áreas del conocimiento, el arte y la vida cotidiana. Desde la sociología, la presente se pregunta por las representaciones sociales en torno al amor de las jóvenes lesbianas de sectores altos de Lima, así como por la influencia de sus trayectorias personales, familiares y autoidentificación en la construcción de tales representaciones. Para responder estas y otras interrogantes, se aplicaron entrevistas a nueve jóvenes lesbianas pertenecientes a los sectores altos de Lima y se analizaron sus relatos biográficos desde la sociología de la estructuración social, el posestructuralismo  el enfoque de género. Se hallaron dos aproximaciones al amor entre las jóvenes: del amor romántico al confluente y hacia el amor confluente. Este amor, además, guarda tres secretos: en el mundo interno, con el entorno y con la pareja. Lo ya mencionado se vincula, entre otros factores, con la especificidad de su posición social en los sectores altos y su orientación sexual. Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú2019-12-13info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttp://revistas.pucp.edu.pe/index.php/debatesensociologia/article/view/2154510.18800/debatesensociologia.201801.001Debates en Sociología; Núm. 46 (2018); 5-322304-42840254-9220reponame:Revistas - Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perúinstname:Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perúinstacron:PUCPspahttp://revistas.pucp.edu.pe/index.php/debatesensociologia/article/view/21545/21172http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:revistaspuc:article/215452020-09-15T16:43:52Z

description Love has been subject of interest to various areas of knowledge, art and everyday life. From the field of sociology, this paper aims to analyze social representations of love among young lesbians of Lima’s upper class. The focus is on how their trajectories, families and self-identification influence the construction of such representations. Nine interviews were conducted with young lesbians from the upper class to answer the research question. Two approaches to love were found: from romantic to confluent love and towards confluent love.
