Sumario:This paper examines the opinions and profiles of women protesters at the International Women’s Day demonstration on 8 March 2017 in Rio de Janeiro as revealed by an opinion poll. The data analysis shows that the variables skin color, income, education and sexual orientation do not significantly affect the opinions of the interviewees. What is relevant are the age differences. The data also show changes in the racial, age and socioeconomic profiles of the feminist protesters. Based on these findings, we investigate the relationship between gender, feminism and generation in terms of identity, gender, body, subjectivity, sexuality, culture, politics and strategies and repertoires for mobilization.
