Becoming women at school. Critical Notes about gender identities

In this article we aim at approaching a set of discussions concerning the concept of gender identity, recovering the analyzes produced over two fieldwork researches carried out in Córdoba, Argentina. We show how different groups of young women assume situa-tional generic positions that do not necessarily state a contradiction. These positions are rather contingent to the extent in which they depend on the identity demands that emerge at different interaction scenarios, even at a unique field as school. In sum, from the analy-sis of situated social relations we develop considerations about identities as plural and sit-uational constructions in transformation.
