This dissertation analyzes which discourses involve the body in Brazilian feminist pages on Facebook and how the modes of presence (or absence) of these bodies signify feminisms in Brazil. They are public pages and with massive participation and sharing, according to the dynamics of the digital network researched. As criterion, we choosed those that are admittedly feminist, in other words, that are interlocutors of the movement in the digital network; and those that are active, with recurring and current posts. The thematic of the body is highlighted because we consider that the discourses derived from it are determinant for the exercise of feminism - they are central in the claims of a movement that has in the body its maximum representation. This issue makes it possible to analyze the meanings deriving from it and the demands of the movement: which bodies are considered legitimate in the feminist struggle, under which stereotypes they operate and which norms they ask. This is, what are the discursive constructions of the treated bodies, considering that in feminist theory the body has been apprehended as a source of knowledge and resistance, as well as an object of subjectivity. For the research, we use Foucault's (1988, 2005, 2008, 2017) studies to identify the prevailing discourses on the pages, and the statements that operate in those posts, as well as the powers that are at stake. Not less important, we use feminist bibliographies or inspired by the movement to provide a critical bias to the gender condition, such as: Butler (2015), Beauvoir (2008), Margaret Rago (1998, 2007/2008, 2013, 2014), Margaret A McLaren (2016), Coletivo Não Me Kahlo (2016), Djamila Ribeiro (2017), Angela Davis (2016), Virginie Despentes (2016), Connell (2016), among others. The results point to a greater understanding: of the power dynamics that act on the question of the feminist woman's body; the treatment of the gender issue in feminism in Brazil; and the role of digital networks in the development of feminist discourse
