Abstract
Specific examples of cases where Spanish women and those of other cultures are rendered invisible in different situations and places in their societies and in the mass media are examined in this article. The purpose of exploring that invisibility, with particular attention to the way women�s actual circumstances are reflected in the mass media, is to emphasize that, although this is an era of women�s emancipation, a more profound analysis shows that emancipation often is linked to treatment of the female body. The study also makes it possible to speak of �invisible� women in many sectors of society, as is explained in detail.
