Jane the Upholder of Reproduction Justice? : "You can never go back. And that's what happens when you lose your virginity!"

This study aims to analyze how the successful hybrid television show Jane the Virgin constructs reproduction justice. This was done through a qualitative semiotic text analysis where denotation, connotation and myth was applied as theoretical tools. I have used a theoretical framework of intersectionality, ideology, hegemony, representation and stereotype. 6 chosen episodes have been analyzed based on their portration of reproduction justice. The study’s results show that Jane the Virgin constructs reproduction justice through incorporation of dominating ideologies. Simultaneously, it shows an ambivalent relationship with the phenomenon where competing ideologies are incorporated as well.
