Acercamiento a las percepciones sobre la sexualidad en la adolescencia hipermodernizada a partir del discurso presente en las canciones del género urbano.

Abstract

The following research aims to delve into the perception that adolescents have about sexuality from the discourse present in urban genre songs, within the context of hypermodernity. In order to do so, it resorts to the collection and qualitative analysis of the information obtained by two focal groups, one conformed by female adolescents and the other one by male adolescents, of ages 14 to 16; as well as through the theoretical bases related to psychoanalysis provided by the bibliographic resources examined. The research first elaborates on the theoretical bases that circumscribe it: adolescence, hypermodernity, and the urban music discourse. Later, it proceeds to answer the questions: how does the subject assume adolescence; which are the implications of hypermodernity in the adolescence; what kind of discourse does reggaeton offer on the sexuality to adolescents, and if this one appears in the adolescence as an answer to approach the other. Finally, the results obtained show that the consumption of music of the urban genre can shape what the adolescent perceives about sexuality, as well as propitiate approaches of a sexual nature with the other during that stage.
