Through this paper I attempt to understand the discourses by which the family socializes sexuality and the sexual onset of youth in Ocotlan, Mexico and Antofagasta, Chile. I opted for a qualitative methodology, employing a critical socio-constructivist paradigm designed to gather biographic-narrative information. The analysis of information was carried out according to what Montañes-Serrano (2013) proposes, consisting in the identification of discursive positions. 54 young students participated in the study, 27 women and 27 men of mid-level education aged 15 to 19. Among the results, we find the emergence of hegemonic and dominant positions as conservatives and traditionalists. As well as discursive positions: preventionists and threatening norms. Finally, there are positions that are more aligned with equity and young people’s sexual rights.
