Pluto

Eugenio Derbez's song 'Pluto' is a satirical and humorous take on the character of Pluto, the beloved Disney dog. The lyrics playfully challenge traditional gender norms and stereotypes by describing Pluto in ways that defy typical masculine traits. The repeated lines 'Que muy machin no, A muy machin no, Ese perrito es, Mas bien perrita' suggest that Pluto, often perceived as a male dog, exhibits behaviors that are stereotypically associated with female dogs. This subversion of expectations serves as a commentary on how society imposes rigid gender roles on individuals, even extending these expectations to animals.

The song also delves into the theme of acceptance and the ridicule that comes with being different. Phrases like 'El perrito maricon' and 'Quiere llorar, quiere llorar' highlight the mockery and emotional pain that Pluto endures due to his non-conforming behavior. Despite the derogatory language, there is an underlying message of love and acceptance, as seen in the lines 'Amo a to… El perrito maricon.' This juxtaposition of affection and insult reflects the complex nature of societal attitudes towards those who do not fit into conventional molds.

Cultural references to other famous dogs like Scooby-Doo and Supercan, as well as characters like Rico McPato (Scrooge McDuck), enrich the narrative by placing Pluto in a broader context of popular culture. These references serve to emphasize the universality of the themes being explored, suggesting that the issues of identity and acceptance are pervasive across different contexts and characters. Derbez's use of humor and satire makes the song both entertaining and thought-provoking, encouraging listeners to reflect on their own perceptions and biases.
