Abstract
This paper proposes a theoretical discussion with a transfeminist perspective and a sociocultural análisis of prosthetic femininity as a contemporary occupation. For this purpose, the article compares images of Kim Kardashian, Mexican buchonas, Pixee Fox –a Swedish model–, Valeria Kuckyanova and RealDolls, the new generation of sex dolls by an American company to show how they embody and share the same prototype of a hypersexualized body that represents a business itself.
