Sumario:Sex-affective relations in the university environment have been studied fundamentally from the perspective of gender violence. There is little evidence of the gender inequalities on which these relationships support. This article seeks to interrogate the economic-material dimension of sex-affective ties. In this sense, it is proposed to analyze the figures under which the imaginary around the management of money and care in the sex-affective relationships of those who participate in the university space (teachers, non-teachers and students) emerge. To answer this question, a qualitative methodology was applied through the in-depth interview technique. From this approach, two large dimensions of analysis were identified. In the first place, the scenes that show the figures and metaphors that the interviewees use about the management of money in the sex-affective bond and the fictions that they recreate in relation to equality. Secondly, we will delve into the effective distribution of home and person care (especially minor children) that occurs in these relationships.
