Amor de Mujer

"Amor De Mujer" is a song by Mexican recording pop artist Paulina Rubio from her debut studio album La Chica Dorada (1992). Released as a single on January 1993 in Mexico and May 29, 1993 in United States by Capitol Latin, the song has subsequently appeared on most of Rubio's hits compilations including Top Hits (2000) and Mio: Paulina Y Sus Éxitos (2006). Like most of Rubio's first material, it was written and produced by José Ramón Flórez, Gian Pietro Felisatti y Miguel Blasco, respectively. The lyrics tells Rubio's transition "from girl to woman" and is considered one of the precursory songs as feminist anthem of the singer.
