The 50s, 60s and 70s mark a juncture in the history of Nicaragua and in the case of gender. On the one hand, during the 50s, women gained the right to vote; and secondly, 1979 contains important data regarding the participation of women in the Sandinista Popular Revolution. In this research, these are collected and other events related to gender representations of gross journals of the two largest circulation newspapers with nationwide at the time: Novedades and La Prensa; the first handled by the Somoza family; and therefore, the following assumed an opposition against the prevailing role government.
The journey through the pages of La Prensa and Novedades in the context of 1950-1979, offers a comprehensive analysis related to the conception of women at that time. This view of women is manifested through the study of categories like gender stereotypes that shape behaviour patterns, social classes imposed by media manipulation, the conception of female beauty and receiving messages from the population at the time in study. These elements are immersed
from the written media as a totalizing axis that proposes a holistic approach to research.
