This work looks into the posthuman proposals of technology from a gender perspective and within the feminist framework of social sciences. It analyses the regulation of life by technology from a critical standpoint on the treatment that media and the science fiction give to androcentricity when addressing technological progress and human transformation, from robotics to cyborg. The article concludes analyzing the Swedish science fiction series called Real Humans (2012-2104) in which robots, called hubots (androids), share their daily life and get along with humans.
