Resumen
[ES] Esta disertación abordará la relación entre la hiperfeminidad y la violencia en el mundo
cisheteropatriarcal occidental, teniendo en cuenta que el punto de partida es la hipótesis de que la
violencia es innata al ser humano independientemente de las etiquetas hechas por el hombre. Gracias a la
creciente popularidad del empoderamiento femenino, parece haber una nueva definición de lo que
significa ser hiperfemenino creada por mujeres, en contraste con la tradicional basada en valores
patriarcales. Está marcada por la libertad de elección y alienta a las mujeres a ser todo menos sumisas a
los hombres. También lidiaremos con cómo dicha relación ha sido presentada en los medios de
comunicación por la mirada masculina dominante, y con el programa de televisión Killing Eve, ya que
ejemplifica cómo la mirada femenina está trabajando para retratar esos temas ahora que tiene la
oportunidad de expresarse y de llegar a audiencias más grandes.

Thanks to the growing popularity of female empowerment, there seems to be a new definition for what being hyperfeminine means that has been created by women, in contrast to the traditional one based on patriarchal values. It is marked by freedom of choice, and it encourages women to be everything but inherently submissive to men. We will also deal with how such relationship has been presented in the media by the dominant male gaze, and with the TV show Killing Eve, as it exemplifies how the female gaze is working on portraying those topics now that it has the chance to express itself and to reach bigger audiences.
