In this article, based on ethnographic fìeldwork, I intend to discuss how in San Lorenzo, Costa Chica of Oaxaca, so both space and time are determined by gender, i.e. how it produces space-time imaginaries full of symbolisms, power and generically distinct meanings. These differences make it possible for men to control the productive sector, through symbolic domination. I am interested in how, despite the existing ideology in Morelos that assigns women to domestic spaces in spite of the existing ideology in Morelos. They hijack public spaces and turn them into domestic ones, feminizing the spaces through their practices.

Keywords : gender; space; domination; resistance; ethnography.
