The results of the feminist analysis show that sexual content in the lyrics and music videos can be seen as both sexist and female liberation, depending on the feminist theory defended. The sexual content of Motomami, according to radical feminism, tends to be seen as sexist, while... (More)

Rosalía as an artist has moved towards an increasingly sexualized image; Feminism is present in both El mal querer and Motomami, but they are expressed in different ways. El mal querer is based on radical feminism, while Motomami is permeated with more sexually liberal feminist theories. (Less)

Los resultados del análisis feminista muestran que el contenido sexual en las letras y los vídeos musicales puede verse tanto como sexista como liberación femenina, dependiendo de la teoría feminista que se defienda. El contenido sexual de Motomami, según el feminismo radical, tiende a ser visto como sexista, mientras que las teorías liberales sexuales lo ven como liberador. Queda claro que Rosalía como artista ha avanzado hacia una imagen cada vez más sexualizada; El feminismo está presente tanto en El mal querer como en Motomami, pero se expresan de diferentes maneras. El mal querer se basa en el feminismo radical, mientras que Motomami está impregnado de teorías feministas más sexualmente liberales. (Less)
