The oppression experienced by women is a historic mark in our country. Even with so many advances, the result of the arduous struggles of the women's movements, there is still a lot to be achieved. Until today, there are gender distinctions and delimitation of female spaces, and this is the result of a patriarchal and sexist structure that historically established roles and stereotyped what it is to be a woman and how they are responsible for acting. Between the 17th and 19th centuries, for example, those who disobeyed the imposed social rules of submission and fragility were called insane and imprisoned in dungeons, convents, family houses to be adjusted to the pattern considered feminine. As women move from the private to the public space and, in addition, enter the Prison System, we analyze, in this study, how the "disruption" of this culturally constructed female image was established and how the demand for them is much greater precisely because of this historic mark of being fragile. Thus, the general objective of this research was to analyze whether there is a correlation between the crime associated with drug trafficking and homicide committed by women with the male gender. The method used was qualitative and literature review. Secondary data and the referenced literature allowed us to identify that female penitentiaries are mostly composed of black and brown women, totaling 63.55%, including those with low purchasing power and education, who, directly or not, had influence or motivation of the male gender in the crimes carried out and that, despite this fact does not annul the crimes committed, it highlights the power of situations of violence and submission as determinants for the criminal practices carried out.
