This article analyses the positions of the subject that emerge with the confrontation of the hegemonic norms of gender and the real situations of women since their incorporation into higher education. From the narrative of 21 indigenous women from Chiapas, the concept of subject positions is recovered since the Alcoff (1989) approach, to show that women can be in situations that are considered passive, negotiator or resistant in relation to other positions, enabling them to have the power to extend or reduce their margins of action. The findings warn of the emergence of five possible positions in a nexus of adaptation-resistance involving subjective conflicts and emotional distress. Between the adaptation and the positive affirmation, it exists a range of acts of adaptation and resistance linked to each other, which show the material and symbolic circumstances in which their expectations of professionalization occur.

Palabras llave : indigenous women; gender; subjectivity; subject.
