Abstract


This paper has the aim to revise the documents
that concentrate on the analysis of textbooks in Physical
Education. The 17 documents retrieved, between 2000
and 2012, revealed that in the textbooks’ images prevail
the women with slim bodies and muscular men. Without
taking into account the ethnic, age and multiform diversity,
the images exalt white, athletic and slim people. Therefore,
it is possible to affirm that stereotypes, prejudices and
discrimination in relation to genre, age, ethnic group, race
and corporal patterns still prevail in the images and texts of
the books analysed by the Brazilian and Spanish authors.
