RESUMO

This research is dedicated to discussing gender relations present in the daily ritual practices of the religious community called Vale do Amanhecer and its socio-cultural context, the main theoretical feminist scientific research. We believe that the feminist approach, while criticism of modernity, is meant to focus on these relationships, usually revealing issues and pointing out who oppresses marginalized and those who suffer oppression in a system based on gender inequality. The Vale do Amanhecer was created and consolidated from the foresight of its founder, Neiva Chaves Zelaya, Tia Neiva, and is characterized by syncretism of beliefs, symbols, structure, ritual practices and costumes used by his / her fans / them. Faced with this object of study, our proposal is associated with the effort to understand the roles played by men and women to demonstrate how biological determinant classifies people as sex or not able to perform certain functions in some ritualistic practices. Considering these aspects, we can say that this religious movement gives privileges to male roles, determines performance spaces for women and defines the ideal behavior for them and them, reinforcing present in androcentric society
