This work is an attempt to analyze the oral discourse of these women, to understand the historical participation in this ritual, pointing out the actions for dehistoricization that, in the Western world, take women out of the community scene making their roles less important or invisible as agents of social construction. The reflections that take place in this research, using as a starting point, the example of a traditional fishing community on the Brazilian coast, and denounce the mechanisms of male domination that try to silence their h?bitus, such as: the discourse of power (that is responsible for the permanent division of sexual structures) and of the correspondent social and cultural division. The present research respects the oral discourse of the Elderly Women as a significant practice of community life in Diogo Lopes in Macau, Rio Grande do Norte. The creation of the community of RDSE in Ponta do Tubar?o as an instrument for political and social management is also accepted here as a process conducted by various social actors that react to developmental threats that have interfered with and are still trying to interfere with the equilibrium of the regional ecosystem. The methodology used in the research is supported in the oral discourse of these women as social representations of a focus group, on which the method of the An?lise do Discurso do Sujeito Coletivo (DSC) ( Collective Subject Discourse Analysis ) is applied / A participa??o de mulheres com mais de sessenta anos no rito social de cria??o da Reserva de Desenvolvimento Sustent?vel Estadual Ponta do Tubar?o, no Rio Grande do Norte, ? o objeto central desta pesquisa. Este trabalho busca analisar o discurso oral destas senhoras, na tentativa de historicizar tal participa??o neste rito, apontando as a??es de des-historiciza??o que, no Ocidente, retiram as mulheres da cena comunit?ria desvalorizando ou tornando invis?veis os seus papeis de agentes da constru??o social. As reflex?es decorrentes desta pesquisa, realizadas a partir do exemplo de uma comunidade pesqueira tradicional do litoral brasileiro, denunciam os mecanismos de domina??o masculina que se instauram no sil?ncio do h?bitus, tais como: os discursos de poder (que s?o respons?veis pela eterniza??o das estruturas da divis?o sexual) e os princ?pios de divis?o social e cultural correspondentes. A presente pesquisa acata o discurso oral de Velhas Mulheres como uma pr?tica de vida comunit?ria significativa, na comunidade de Diogo Lopes Macau/RN. A cria??o comunit?ria da RDSE Ponta do Tubar?o como instrumento de gest?o pol?tico-social ? tamb?m aceita aqui como processo conduzido por atores sociais v?rios. Eles reagiram ?s amea?as desenvolvimentistas que se abateram e ainda tentam se abater sobre o equil?brio dos ecossistemas de sua regi?o. A metodologia utilizada na pesquisa ap?ia-se nos discursos orais destas senhoras como representa??es sociais do grupo em foco, sobre os quais se aplica o m?todo de An?lise do Discurso do Sujeito Coletivo (DSC)
