A través de una metodología cualitativa centrada en narrativas, se exploran los significados asignados a la maternidad y no maternidad, cuestionando conceptos como el “instinto maternal”. La autonomía emerge como un derecho y se revelan las diversas razones para no ser madre. Además, se aborda el estigma, la presión social y la violencia moral, evidenciando estrategias de resistencia al mandato maternal y la construcción de nuevas identidades femeninas. Se aboga por un diálogo inclusivo sobre las elecciones de vida de estas mujeres.Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos, Facultad de Ciencias Sociales2024-07-24info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistasinvestigacion.unmsm.edu.pe/index.php/discursos/article/view/2735110.15381/dds.n13.27351Discursos del Sur, revista de teoría crítica en Ciencias Sociales; Núm. 13 (2024); 139-165Discursos del Sur, revista de teoría crítica en Ciencias Sociales; No. 13 (2024); 139-1652617-22912617-228310.15381/dds.n13.reponame:Revistas - Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcosinstname:Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcosinstacron:UNMSMspahttps://revistasinvestigacion.unmsm.edu.pe/index.php/discursos/article/view/27351/21249Derechos de autor 2024 Karol Josefina Altamirano Camachohttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:revistasinvestigacion.unmsm.edu.pe:article/273512024-09-12T17:23:45Z
