The present article aims to analyze the expressions of gender inequality in Physical Education (PE) classes in school, with a study performed in two primary schools from Pelotas-RS as its object of investigation. The data was obtained by means of document analysis and open and closed - ended questions in questionnaires answered by 11th grade students. The results show that the hegemonic perspective of PE reproduces social inequalities in general, making inequality and women’s oppression deeper.
