In this paper we are going to reflect about the option for the armed struggle in the militancy of women, from two military and political organizations that resisted the Pinochet’s dictatorship in Chile (1973-1990): Movimiento de Izquierda Revolucionaria (MIR 1965-1987) and Frente Patriótico Manuel Rodríguez (FPMR 1980-1990), formed as armed branch of the Communist Party of Chile. From testimonies, documents, and political press we inquire how both organizations justified the used of violence, as well as the interest of these militant for be affiliated to these political projects and their disposition what they implied. The above, from a cultural perspective of history and feminist theory, questioning the notion of female nature and understanding the interpretation of world and imaginary build contributed the decisions made.
