description	Observing a few festival customs among the Otomi and the Huichol Mexican Indians, the author highlights the process upon which the contact with the mestizo modernity, intensified by the migratory mobility, restarts with a dualistic representation of the cosmos that necessarily includes sexual polarity. In the rite festival casting, the women’s role has been transformed by the overturning influences these societies have been subjected to, from the first contact with the Western environment, the consecutive penetration of money, Christian references, liberal, egalitarian and, at least, hedonistic ways of thinking. But the sociological reshaping that was meant by this cultural imperialism did not really emancipate the women, by no means; on the contrary it has confirmed her traditional status, as a matrix submitted to physiologic and seasonal cycles which periodicity is evoked, each year at the same moment, by festival rites that are led by men. This drives to a critical reflexion about a certain approach of “gender” that pretends to link the process of modernisation and “globalization of the cultures” to a necessary evolution toward the liberation of woman from the power of man and, in definitive, toward a process of sexual differences merging.
