This article analyzes the materialities of Brazilian Portuguese textbooks, focusing on how the discursive functioning of the didactic material works concerning issues related to gender identity and discursivization of both male and female bodies. The framework that composes this research was extracted from the collections entitled: “Português contemporâneo: diálogo, reflexão e uso” by CEREJA, DAMIEN & VIANNA (2016), “Se liga na língua: literatura, produção de texto e linguagem” by SINISCALCHI & ORMUNDO (2016), and “Português: contexto, interlocução e sentido” by ABAURRE & PONTARA (2016). In order to do so, we based on the field of Discourse Analysis, casting authors such as Foucault (2001, 2009, 2014, 2016, 2018), Courtine (2013) and Coracini (1999), establishing a dialogue with Bourdieu (2017), Louro (2014). The analysis allowed for the realization that - in linguistic-visual materialities terms – several issues emerge, enabling a discussion on gender identity, outlining crystallized body patterns for both men and women in the Brazilian society.
