Fieldwork is essential for any anthropologist. It implies an extended stay in the field, maintaining meaningful relationships with those known as key informants and/or partners. In this context, our emotional (and sexual) involvement should not be surprising; however, a taboo has been created regarding the issue (Kulick and Willson 1995; Newton 1993). So this article is situated, through the narration of my own fieldwork experience, in the line of reflecting on disciplinary taboos and their implications in doing fieldwork, in legitimizing some ways of knowing and not others as well as their later reflection in the ethnographic writing.
