Kuvaus:The purpose of this paper is to reflect upon the asymmetric relationships between men and women –relationships that have represented a disadvantage particularly for women–. This has been a historical reality in all social contexts, and education institutions are not the exception. The inequality and inequity relationships have permeated the socially designated roles, in terms of sexual identity, which has contributed to women’s discrimination in accessing equal opportunities for their full development as human beings. It is important to acknowledge the fights against inequality and discrimination; however, many tasks are still pending. Education is, precisely, one way to such a path in which men and women will enjoy the same rights and duties, not only on paper, but also in the everyday life. That is why the formation of future teachers requires a new vision in terms of the design and implementation of study plans explicitly including the analytical category of gender to promote changes in sexist practices, from preschool to the university level.
