The essay, through the techniques of visual sociology, presents a study about women who choose (or are doing) jobs that are not culturally conform to their gender, violating an unwritten symbolic domain. It introduces a qualitative socio-photographic research conducted in Italy between 2010 and 2013 by interviewing and photographing women who were doing male jobs: some truck drivers, a miner, a chef, a mountain guide, a helicopter pilot, an electrician, a firewoman, a woodworker, a shipwright, a mechanical engineer, etc.
Keywords: Stereotypes; job; visual sociology.
