Summary: This article briefly aims to demonstrate how the historical silencing of the female voice in public spaces reverberates in the severe women under-representation in politics, adopting the perspective that the historicity of the construction of power’s figures in different contexts is, alongside other elements, something that defining the low female representation in politics. Therefore, this study adopts the methodology of literature review and analysis of research reports developed about the subject with statistical data about it, as well as the use of current and historical examples that demonstrate the various practical contours of the obstacles experienced by women in search for effective equality of access to spaces of power. In the end, it is concluded that women's political rights in Brazil are not effective, and it’s necessary and urgent to change this.
