This article is based on the results of a master's research that aimed to investigate the movement of continuing education of teachers who teach mathematics, through narratives elaborated according to the parameters of Oral History. In this text, we present a discussion on how cultural aspects linked to the female figure influence the training processes and, for that, we highlight some excerpts from narratives in which the teachers shared their experiences about participating in the Pedagogical Mathematics Workshop (OPM), a university extension project, whose main objective is the elaboration and execution of pedagogical workshops in mathematics, theoretically and methodologically based on Historical-Cultural Theory and Activity Theory. The objective of this text is to provide reflections that lead to a critical thinking about gender, equality and inequality in the professionalization of women who work in teaching, discussing historical, cultural and social aspects that cross them in this formative path and that are still latent in the narratives of these women teachers. In this perspective, we propose the discussion as a way of deconstructing barriers that still hamper the access of teachers to scientific and technological training spaces, as well as limiting access to research and the quality of training processes.
