Summary:This paper intends to reflect on how 4 women, of close age, experience love and exercise their sexuality, but also how social protection policies contemplate their demands, from a class, gender and generation perspective. It is seen that the formation of the pair in old age is subject to the gender boundaries that restrict their choices and force them to be selective in the choice of partners, if they do not want to be alone.
