Sumario:A myth has been built around gender-based violence in which the perpetrator is regarded as mentally ill, a monster, someone who does not belong in the social tissue and who is alíen to the rest of the community. Perhaps this is a defense mechanism generated by the social body to differentiate itself from those who create discomfort through their actions. In addition, there is a belief that there are different types of victims. There are victims who are perfect, untainted, who are not subject to reproof and have committed no "sins" that might obscure the memories we have of them; whereas other victims, whom we shall call "enticing" and who have met their fate as a consequence of their immoral conduct, their dress habits, their questionable friends, the social group they belong to, or their behavioral patterns. This essay attempts to prove that the construction of victims and perpetrators is largely due to descriptions employed by mass media, unhesitatingly labeling murdered women as either "angels" or "young women who neither work nor study and who go out at night with multiple men".
