Résumé
"Beyond Oscar Lewis' generalization of the culture of poverty, his anthropological works have been used to create diverse stereotypes of a poor population of Mexican cities where the ''macho mexicano'' is outstanding. In this article, the author explores Lewis' misinterpretation who tries to find a ubiquitous sexism in Mexico, instead, the author proposes a careful study of the people's life which will show some inherited characteristics as well as an attempt to create new ways of living together."
