Nowadays, in the era of globalization and information, the influence of mass media is of special importance in terms of the configuration of a patriarchal symbolic order, which establishes the hierarchy of genders based on the supremacy of the masculine, typical of males, over feminine, proper to women. This obstructive role division constantly recreates a stereotyped and reductionist vision of the sexes. The following study tries to approach the Peruvian feminine and masculine imaginary in two contemporary Peruvian cultural manifestations. Thus, we observe gender relations in Peru, the naturalization of cultural roles imposed by society, the permissiveness of gender violence and the construction of masculinity and femininity transmitted through two forms of spectacle in the popular cultural imaginary of Peru: free wrestling and vedettismo.
