      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.
