| Sumario: | This article presents preliminary findings from a research project which explores contemporary practices and beliefs related to power and feminine, in self-ascribed women to institutionalized and non-institutionalized religious communities, who have a leadership position within them. It begins by considering the biography and work of the catalan benedictine nun Teresa Forcades, and then discusses the articulation between gender category and her feminist theology. Based on her dialogue with Judith Butler, Jacques Lacan and Paul B. Preciado, it concludes that her theology and leadership are significant because of their dissidents passages in between religious, political and social spaces; transits which are possible and necessary facing the XXI century demands.
