In this article, we focus on the place of gender within informal transliteracy practices performed by youth. We examine the reception and creation of cultural productions by adolescents using the metaphor of cultural mixing and hybridization concepts, as well as multimodality. Our objective is to identify and analyze the creative practices of these young people, taking into account the identification, or not, with a particular gender. For this we conducted a survey of 200 adolescents and a case study. Preliminary results show that the interests, practices and skills of young people fit within, and are integrated into, a series of continuums. We conclude with the need to also think about gender as a continuum on a scale of graduated values rather than a polarity between two opposite states, while also identifying the status of the creation of cultural productions for young people.
