%X the following is an exploratory study that intends to show how some linguistic structures found in reggaeton songs sung by women may promote gender-based violence in ways that are not perceived by the general public. for such purpose i selected data from four female reggaeton singers¡äsongs: adassa, glory, lorna and ivy queen, and performed a qualitative analysis focused on the rhetorical figure of the metaphor and the concepts of denial of agency and pollution of agency. i conclude that some language used in reggaeton may damage women¡äs integrity and image as social, autonomous and respectable entities.
