Abstract
This article problematizes the ways in which senses, feelings and sensitivities can be analyzed in Argentina in
the period 1880-1930. Particularly, the ways in which social sensibilities can be traced between social classes
and in gender relations. This focuses on three social segments: first, the dominant classes whose power was
based primarily on the large landed property; secondly, to the capital's middle class began to emerge in the late
nineteenth; and third instead, the popular classes into production and services. Together, it distinguishes the
gender difference. We conclude that it is indisputable that men and women are not comparable, it is precisely
in the complex order of sensations, emotions and sensitivities which marks an impossible identification of the
genera.
