This paper deals with the conception of the body paying particular attention to how it has been associated with the feminine. Starting from a revision of theories on the body as a social construction, as argued by Foucault, Bourdieu or Butler, the text highlights the current work of Spanish anthropologist Mari Luz Esteban. Having her work as a starting point, our proposal is to vindicate the female body, neither as essence nor as pure construction, but as a practice that allows us to think of it excluded from “commercial circulation” or dominationties.Este artículo se asoma a la concepción del cuerpo y, en particular, de cómo ha sido asociado a lo femenino.
