This work investigates criminal cases of women who were charged with murder in Rio Grande do Sul between the decades of 1930 and 1950, and has as a starting point the case of a woman who was prosecuted for killing her husband.The aim is to analyze the dispute of narratives found throughout the judicial sources and the discussion unfolds on three analytical axes: to think about the historical and cultural conditions that made these crimes possible; to point how the judicial system operated according to colonial and sexist imaginaries, and to understand how the femininity ideal built by the medical and criminological science influenced the outcomes of the stories covered.The main argument is these plots reveal subjection and standardization mechanisms but also allow shifts concerning gender stereotypes and indicate feminine bodies are never merely power receptacles or inert materials that only accept violence and discourses directed to them -they are bodies that can refuse and subvert the technologies created to direct and regulate them.The research is guided theoretically and methodologically by feminist epistemologies and Foucault's philosophy
