Descrição: This article seeks to further the debate on the political participation of women in the framework of a democratic political regime. Foremost, it analyzes women's representation as elected legislators in Brazilian state legislatures. Accordingly, the article draws on the contributions made thus far by some women authors - linked to a theoretical framework that, as the article unfolds, is presented as the feminist theory - as regards the critique of the model of democracy prevailing in Western societies. Next, we present and discuss an array of data on women's inclusion in the Legislative Assembly of the State of Rio Grande do Sul, encompassing all female state representatives elected since 1951, when the first gaúcha, as those born in the state like to call themselves, woman legislator took office. The findings in this article seek to advance knowledge of the history of women's political parliamentary participation, given the scarcity of information on the theme in the context of the aforementioned state legislature, as well as pointing out the main features of female participation in the Rio Grande do Sul State Legislature.
