Summary/Abstract: This article discusses the conceptualisation of FEMININITY in Polish Catholic online discourse based on the work of Ewelina Chełstowska. The study draws on the idea of discursive worldview and linguistic worldview. The source material was analysed using the method of concept profiling. The research focused on Chełstowska’s social media posts and content published by her in the mobile app “Klub Urzekającej” (‘The Captivating Club’). The article presents a reconstruction of five profiles of the concept of FEMININITY: FEMININITY as a garden, FEMININITY as a mission, woman as a giver and guardian of life, woman as the King’s Daughter, woman as a being who cares about her appearance. The relevance of the research is supported by the continued popularity of gender issues in public debate, as well as the degree of polarisation observed in these discussions.
