Description:In this article I analyze two problematic issues of the 1833s and 1930s in Costa Rica: the accentuation of the sexual division of labor after the emergence of the modern “working woman”and the increased presence of feminism. Both phenomena aroused male resistance that was expressed in the presence of openly vulgarizing and harassing discourses against women. For this purpose, I focus on a selection of news and opinion articles chosen after the review of 33 Catholic, liberal, socialist, workerist and anarchist newspapers of the period in question.
