Wonder woman: la romantización y sexualidad de un icono feminista a través del audiovisual

Abstract

Superheroin Wonder Woman was born a feminist icon in the forties of the last century. Its diffusion, first through the comic and later through the cinema, has undergone different adaptations, some with patriarchal tints. The cinematographic representation of the Amazon princess as protagonist is characterized by the hypersexualization and romantization of the character. This article aims to review and analyze whether romantic love and sexualization are resources that are repeated in all their representations and to understand if these divert the feminist discourse of this superhero.
