A metodologia utilizada consistiu em entrevistas semiestruturadas em profundidade, com idosos/as entre a faixa etária de 65 e 77 anos, na cidade de Cuiabá (MT), Brasil. Conforme os resultados constatou-se que as experiências vivenciadas pelos homens durante a juventude estiveram vinculadas a um corpo construído por atributos de masculinidade como: força, virilidade e trabalho; as mulheres, por sua vez, recordavam-se de um corpo que “pesava menos” e que, posteriormente, foi modificado por meio da experiência da maternidade biológica e social. Nesse sentido, homens e mulheres mostraram-se significativamente influenciados por representações tradicionais de gênero. Representações estas que colaboram para que as técnicas apreendidas/incorporadas durante o processo de envelhecimento dialoguem com a representação de gênero que tiveram durante seus processos de socialização.Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo2015-06-30info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/kairos/article/view/2847610.23925/2176-901X.2015v18i2p443-458Revista Kairós-Gerontologia; v. 18 n. 2 (2015); 443-4582176-901X1516-2567reponame:Revista Kairós (Online)instname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo (PUC-SP)instacron:PUC_SPporhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/kairos/article/view/28476/20000Bitencourt, Silvana Mariainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2022-12-13T18:58:28Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/28476Revistahttp://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/kairosPRIhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/kairos/oaikairos@pucsp.br||flalodo@terra.com.br|| contato@openjournalsolutions.com.br2176-901X1516-2567opendoar:2022-12-13T18:58:28Revista Kairós (Online) - Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo (PUC-SP)false
