Women Judges and Gender Construction in the Judicial Career

ABSTRACT

The article is based on data from the Brazilian Judges’ sociodemographic profile, conducted by CNJ in 2018, and the Federal Justice Commission Survey conducted by the Ajufe Women Commission in 2019, to dialogue with studies on women’s participation in the Judiciary. The argument is that gender contrast in the professional world is built through the unequal distribution of privileges and disadvantages from an implicit bias. This favors the path of men in a receptive environment and creates difficulties for women who need to adjust to that space.
