PIZOLATI, Audrei Rodrigo da Conceição. Preferably non mothers: women teaching and eugenics. Rev. Estud. Fem. [online]. 2023, vol.31, n.1, e83952.  Epub 01-Jan-2023. ISSN 1806-9584.  https://doi.org/10.1590/1806-9584-2023v31n183952.

To analyze the overlap between eugenics, education and the insertion of the woman-mother in the 19th century teaching, theoretically and methodologically grounded in post-structuralist gender studies and in the History of Education studies, the materiality of the I National Conference on Education was used. (1927), which investigated the education and medical-eugenic discourse designed for the biosocial conduct of the woman-mother, who aimed to intervene in the female body to generate eugenicized descendants. Motherhood would position the woman-mother in a non place, as far as teaching is concerned. This ideology, also present in the Conference of 1927, established that the commitment of women would obey the tasks of the home. The “costs” of the State related to the special leave granted by law to postpartum women during the school year was also debated.
