Abstract

This article intends to propose a reflection on the process of building, negotiation and reconstruction of femininity and masculinity as gender constructions. Inspired by the plots presented in some films of Pedro Almodóvar's work, the authors intend to toast the readers with a critical reflection on the crystallization of the boundaries between what we conventionally call "feminine" and "masculine."
