Desde la perspectiva de los estudios culturales, se consideran los discursos sociales que relacionan la feminidad y la masculinidad con el matrimonio y la maternidad/paternidad, y se realiza un análisis textual interpretativo de una muestra de series televisivas para discutir las ideas dominantes que circulan en la sociedad japonesa acerca del creciente número de personas solteras. Se argumenta la posibilidad de que ellas estén encontrando en los contenidos televisivos un espacio de negociación con la sociedad para defender sus trayectorias de vida y rechazar las etiquetas que se les han estado imponiendo.]]></p></abstract>
<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="en"><p><![CDATA[Abstract This article analyzes the hegemonic discourses about femininity and masculinity, social expectations, and social assessment of individuals according to their marital status, focusing the attention on the social pressure put upon single and childfree individuals in contemporary Japan. From the perspective of the cultural studies, considering the public social discourses that relate femininity and masculinity with marriage and motherhood/ fatherhood, and the interpretative textual analysis of a sample of television series, the dominant ideas circulating in Japan about these people are discussed. It is argued the possibility of them finding in these television contents a platform to negotiate with society and defend their life trajectories and to reject the labels that have been imposed on them.]]></p></abstract>
