Abstract

Nobody escapes that we live a moment of profound transformations from the perspective of gender that urges men and women to redefine and even to propose new constructions of gender that do not rule out even the subversion of gender itself. If much is studied, analyzed, exposed, spoken and proclaimed -militanies aside- around the image of women, of yesterday and today, and their circumstances, it is no less true that, at the present time, it may be the man the great protagonist of such cultural, sociological and ideological processes that, as it could not be less, are also projected onto the world of images and the infinite universe of visual culture generated by, from and for the mass media.
