Resumo:This paper discusses masculinity in women through the analysis of a character from a Video On Demand series. Based on the anomalous concept of Deleuze and Guattari and Butler’s concept of gender performativity, Maggie, a character from Godless, is here investigated. Two theoreticalanalytical categories were conceived. The first was focused on the relationship between abjection and anomalous, the second, based on the deterritorialization of Maggie that constituted her as a border phenomenon. As an effect, Maggie did put in question the process of abjection itself as an inevitable effect of the constitution of an ambiguous body, which led her to compose what I have named, based on the Deleuzo-Guattarian theory, becoming-dyke.
