Why was sex a taboo for Brazilian women?

That sex used to be a taboo is not surprising because the Brazilians are the biggest catholic nation in the world. Many experts say that Brazilian men and women have become more open when it comes to sexuality. The proof lies in the fact that erotic stores are visited more frequently. One interesting fact is that ten years ago Brazilian women represented only 5 percent of shoppers in erotic stores. Now, that percentage has gone up dramatically. In fact, women go to erotic stores more often than men (70 percent of shoppers is female).

Why have Brazilian women changed their attitude to sex?

Many series or so called 'soap operas' contributed to this. They are full of emotional and covertly perverse scenes. It has to be said that due to religion, women should preferably be virgins until they are married. Years ago, women who abided by this, used oral and anal methods to help matters (and they maintained their virginity), but research shows that the number of those is decreasing as well.
