This research located in the field of Communication, sought through the theoretical and methodological approach of digital ethnography, to understand the production of narratives on the internet from the circulation of intimate contents of women without consent, called in the field by an emic term, named as explanation . The research addresses the following problem – how does the production of gender violence against women occur around the non-consensual circulation of intimate content? With the general objective of understanding how the narratives are organized to produce violence based on field cases related to the dissemination of intimate content without consent. The specific objectives lie in – identifying spaces that produce practices around the circulation of women's intimate content; naming the spaces and practices developed through the nonconsensual circulation of intimate contents; and, analyze narratives produced around violence against women based on the non-consensual circulation of intimate content. For this, participant observation in online environments made possible the ethnographic stay that presented the following elaborations as the main results: the phenomenon that is presented, said explanation, moves away from notions related to the term revenge pornography, usually associated with domestic violence. This term differs due to nuances and specific impasses that present other aspects, distanced from the molds understood by this formulation, although, the consumption of these images can be characterized as pornography. In this scenario, this type of violence committed against girls and women through the wide exposure of their bodies and sexuality, not only goes back to historical violence, but also establishes a re-updating with characteristics typical of this medium. On the internet, it is possible to maintain and update rituals of hegemonic masculinity, through the circulation of intimate content, it creates and manufactures territories to be owned and dominated through women's bodies. The massive circulation of intimate content is generated by the complicity between users and platforms, thereby producing an ecosystem of content traffic, which, the woman's body becomes raw material that feeds databases with nonconsensual accumulation and expropriation, highly profitable, symbolic and material. In this context dominated by patriarchal neoliberal logics, I present other narratives that emerge as modes of resistance, are activist and feminist networks in expansion that produce practices related to the fight against gender violence against women and communities of sexual diversity. In this direction, centered on analyzing gender issues with a focus on a specific type of violence addressed to women, from online social dynamics, the thematic contours deal with digital cultures and their communication processes that constitute meanings, above all, are spaces for construction of territories and dispute of narratives, of the body, of subjectivities and resistances.
