The objective of this document is to present the articles that form this thesis, which has a thematic approach based on gender relations in sports press. On an organizational level, this thesis can be divided into two blocks, the basic information and the details. The basic information block contains two articles: "The studies of gender and masculinity and the consequences for Physical Education" and "The eye of the press on female volleyball: when the shadows call attention to themselves". The first is on identities and the effects of masculinity on the Physical Education and Sports area. In the context of this article, it is possible to infer that studies about "gender" and "masculinity" themes are fertile and promising terrain regarding the contemporaneity and theory in the scientific universe that is touched by this area of knowledge. As such, one can infer that sports have been legitimizing and reproducing an hegemonic ideology that is sexist, male chauvinist and patriarchal. In the second article, the history of female insertion and permanence in the world of sports was analyzed through an image analysis technique. The investigation found that the image of female athletes is still being divulged by the sporting press under a male hegemony, that "legislates" about what it wants to see. The second block of articles is composed by two other articles, as follows: "London 2012 Olympic Games: male and female Brazilians in focus." and "Revelations of Brazilian sporting photographers about gender relations.". In the first study, through the analysis of female athlete images published in newspapers during the Olympic Games, it was determined that there was a greater number of male athlete images and that when men were depicted in a moment of weakness, the image was smaller, whereas women, when shown executing technical gestures, were also relegated to smaller spaces than men in the same situation. In the second article of this block, results show that sports photographers have a specific set of considerations when photographing athletes: when depicting female athletes, they focus on beautiful and sensual female bodies, with little room for representations of their movements in sport, so there is a primarily sexual connotation and their sports performance is relegated to the background. Male athletes, however, when represented in any way that may suggest appeal, are shown differently, in a form that is neither pejorative nor vexing, and always in a manner that conveys pride. The investigation determined that what is published in the newspapers is different from what the photographers stated, considering that many times they affirmed that there was no difference between male and female athletes in sports photography. In the "Final Considerations" section, all of the main impressions brought on by the investigation were recorded. As it is, male and female athletes are treated differently and unequally in the discourse and images exhibited by the sporting press.
