In this essay, we discuss the notion of gender piracy basing our thinking on the aesthetics of queer activism and copyleft licensing movement. By the way that in the western societies, since the beginning of the century, the gender identities and relations are strongly guided by biotech-normative codes (knowledge, artifacts, and technologies ruled by laws of intellectual property), it became possible the mix among activisms that otherwise would not share a common ground. Some gender piracies exhibit the same expertise of the hackers that work their skills in the contemporary arts and performance. Other piracy acts, just go with the flow of the daily events. But in both cases, the pirates overturn the principles of intellectual and technological properties that are mixed with the contemporary gender relations.
