N2  - Some clandestine organisations as well as the Western media willingly promote the part played by women fighters in guerrilla movements such as the Partiya Karkerên Kurdistan (PKK). Beyond the ideological developments of the “Free Woman” theory, the status of women was the object of a difficult women’s conquest carried out within the party. In order to appreciate its evolution, we have relied on a qualitative sociological survey conducted among 28 female PKK fighters. After a brief look back at the phase of the’armification’ of women, we will highlight the forms of gender discrimination that have persisted within the party since the 1990s and emphasise the role of the "armification" of women in the institution of the self as political subject. These elements will lead us to reconsider the thesis of martial feminism, developed in the academic literature and ideologically thought of as a “tool and a condition of women’s emancipation”, in order to nuance it from the perspectie of the women’s relationship to political violence
