This descriptive review aims to reflect the inclusion and permanence of women in equestrian, starting a discussion focus on the social construction of femininity in the context of an elitist modality and underexplored by the field of bodily practices. The literature discussed shows the existence of stereotyped visions directed to female athletes when the subject is competition, family and emotion. The horse personifies itself as a sign marker and gender identities differentiator inserted in the equestrian practices, although the modality exempt itself of the inequality between the sexes.
