The purpose of this paper is to show the importance of studying everyday life of men and women in the city of San Cristobal de Las Casas as a way to understand the process of reconfiguration of gender identity. Language use and memory are important elements in this process. The methodology used in the research is based on constructivist theory. Interviews and life stories were collected to give a qualitative assessment of change. We conclude that gender identity is in constant flux, influenced by life experiences that disrupt prior ideas and which lead to others based on more equality. In this context, men and women perform the search processes of change in the identity reconfiguration and conditions life.
