O lugar das mulheres na podosfera brasileira

Abstract

This research brought together women, radio, feminism, podcasts, and consumption numbers. We demonstrate how radio and feminism have contributed to women being present in podcasts (eu colocaria 'We demonstrate how radio and feminism contributed to the presence of women in podcasts'). There are prominent figures within the female podosphere, breaking the stereotype that women only talk about "makeup or clothes," and we show that the topics are diverse and appealing to all audiences (colocaria 'and we show that the topics are diverse and catch all of kinds of audiences'). The problem addressed in this study is: where are the women in the Brazilian podosphere? The objective was to investigate the position of women in the Brazilian podosphere, with specific aims: to understand the social division of labor from a feminist perspective, te researched the current situation of the podosphere both in general and for women, and to systematize women's perceptions of the space they occupy within the podcast production environment. To achieve this, in the first chapter, we discussed feminism, its waves and branches (colocaria 'sides' no lugar de branches pois não tenho certeza se branch é o que você quer dizer), and also comprehended the concept of gender. Following that, we debated the sexual division of labor. In the second chapter, we addressed the podosphere, starting with the history of women in radio, then the history of podcasts, and also provided consumption data for this media form, discussing existing articles about women in podcasts. In the third chapter, we discussed the methodological approach, explaining the bibliographic research, in-depth interviews, and the snowball technique, which was applied to compose the corpus, also adding content analysis. Five podcasters were interviewed, namely Natália Silva, Jéssica Almeida, Heloiza Barbosa, Branca Vianna, and Mariana Bonafé, and they answered sixteen questions about their personal and professional lives. The results showed that despite obstacles in their way, women podcasters are managing to grow on platforms, bringing diversity and cooperation among women into their podcasts.
