The paper offers a framework analysis applied to the media, with the aim of presenting the central frames on which women's police work is imagined. To do this, Shakima Greggs, a detective and star of the quality serial TV The Wire, is used as the subject of study. The study concludes that the character reflects a social imaginary rooted outside of fiction, that forces female police officers to "behave like men" to be respected, and that links homosexuality to a generic investment.
