This paper discusses how some gender relations are established based on the studies of enation in the field of social cognition. For this, we used two concepts that appear throughout the analysis: the “ethics of care” and “sorority”. From an enactive approach, we look for evidence of how some narratives of induced abortion point to an ethical way of experiencing moral conflicts, carried out not only, but mainly, by women. As an empirical field, we chose two websites: the website “Women on Web” and the tumblr of the campaign developed by the Instituto de Bioética Anis, with the name “Eu vou Contar''. Cartographic inspiration was used as a guideline to track how shared narratives point, move and redesign the way that care alliances are exercised. The study showed that many abortion narratives problematize an ethics conceived in a universalist way, showing other ways of experiencing reproduction and abortion. The narratives call on an inventive power to experience the care alliances in their different forms of manifestation.
