Feminist movement, contemplated in its three phases, has causes according to the historical moment and society in which consolidates itself as a social movement. As social movement, there are disruptions, developments, advances and retreats. "Feminists" titled causes can be dissonant and even coexist. Feminist collectives insurge with the rise of commercial Internet. They appear proportionally as opposed groups. Nowadays, when talking about equality between sex, it means equality in difference. Mobile networks and Ciberfeminism expands the reach of the discussions, but there is a significant increase in attacks against women. This paper arises in a great activity setting in social medias. Then it is proposed a rescue about the history of struggle of the feminist movement and its linkage with online activism and discussions driven by likes and hashtags.
