Papo de chuteira e batom: uma análise das hierarquias de gênero dentro dos espaços de futebol no Brasil

Abstract

This monograph aims to analyze and map, through documents, scientific articles, images and reports, the difficulties, motivations and achievements of women who occupy and have occupied places of power within soccer spaces in Brazil. To this end, using a theoretical framework based on the history of women's soccer since its arrival in Brazil, we looked at how gender hierarchies have affected the growth of women's occupation of these spaces and how the macho and dictatorial history of the sport affects the generations of women who currently occupy certain spaces of power within the sport. After analyzing the information, we found that prejudice — be it gender-based or due to a lack of encouragement — is a recurring factor among the obstacles faced by women in their occupation of the sport, as well as elucidating, based on the history of women's soccer in Brazil, how they managed to regain their rightful place in the sport and how we can learn from the mistakes of the past in order to grow in the field.
