Simone Lucie-Ernestine-Marie Bertrand de Beauvoir, better known as Simone de Beauvoir, was born in the 20th century in Paris. Beauvoir believed that presence in the world is that of concrete existence, of a historical, moral, psychological and political person constituting what she is, in the eyes of others, of herself and of this dialogue between her and the other. The objective of the thesis is outlined in: studying the autobiography of French writer Simone de Beauvoir, in three works, Memoirs of a well-behaved girl (1958), The strength of age (1960) and The strength of things (1963). A woman who, with almost 50 years of existence, decides to tell what she lived, her anguish, her confrontations in a sexist, patriarchal and prejudiced world. Beauvoir showed women that she was the owner of her life, heroine and driver of her own history. In her autobiographical, theoretical and philosophical works, Simone de Beauvoir identified and understood where female submission came from, in which she thought it was wrong to attribute since the woman's birth the idea of the essence of being, showing that nothing defined being a woman, it was not the metaphysical, biological, psychological or material dimension. She was severely criticized for assuming her choices, but she assumed herself as a free woman, showing that nothing determined her, and she wrote about subjects considered taboo such as female education, the body and sexuality, marriage and the profession. All the confrontations shown here are addressed considering studies prepared by the following authors in the autobiography: Philippe Lejeune (2014), Georges Gusdorrf (2011), Leonor Arfuch (2010), Contardo Caligaris (1998) and Clara Crabbé Rocha (1977) on the writing of self by Michel Foucault (2011), Judith Butler (2015) on theoretical aspects of feminine and feminism in Simone de Beauvoir (2005), Donna Haraway (2004), Adriana Piscitelli (2009), Joan Scott (1995) and Luce Irigaray (1992 ) with reflection on the existentialism of Simone de Beauvoir (2010), Jean-Paul Sartre (1970), Frédéric Allouche (2019) and Martin Heidegger (2011), among others.
