 Female Empowerment Song
comment
A song that encourages or praises girls and women in general. Or, alternatively a song about the singer's own prowess and independence that also encourages others to be the same. They're almost always sung by women and aren't romantic in nature (in fact, many of them double as break up songs). They're about admiration and encouragement rather than romantic interest.
Often overlaps with the Pep-Talk Song and Self-Empowerment Anthem.

Sesame Street has had "Women Can Be" (1974), "Girl of the World" (1997) and "Change the World" (2011), all about how women and girls can be whatever they want.

In the stage adaptation of Peter Pan, the controversial song "What Makes the Red Man Red?" is changed into "What Makes the Brave Girl Brave?" and talks about sexism.

Jem: The Misfits has several of these that use the "self-confident boast" variation. For example, "Designing Woman" is about Pizzazz boasting about how proactive and goal-focused she is.

beabadoobee "Dye It Red" comes off this way. The chorus is an anthem about feeling confident and powerful on your own without a shitty man holding you down, while the verses talk about all the shitty man things (like being drunk and sexually aggressive) Bea's ex did.

"Fight Song" by Rachel Platten, while not specifically about female empowerment, has been used for a number of ads and causes involving women, including Hillary Clinton's 2016 presidential campaign and the TV show Supergirl (2015), giving it this connotation.

Bad Bunny: "Yo Perreo Sola" (I Twerk Alone) about women who want to dance by themselves and safely. At the end of the video, the screen reads (in Spanish) "If she doesn't want to dance with you, respect that. She twerks alone."original Si no quiere bailar contigo, respeta. Ella perrea sola

Lesley Gore's "You Don't Own Me" is often cited as a factor in the second wave of feminism. It's about how her lover doesn't own her thoughts or body.

The song "Legendary" from the Raven's Home musical episode "Raven's Home: Remix" has Nia try to encourage Spitz to let Tess audition for a male role in a play. Said song was even remade into a music video featuring various female Disney stars, as an anthem for Women's Rights.

TWICE subunit MiSaMo's title track "Do Not Touch" is about consent and waiting for the right time until the partner wants to be more intimate, which is symbolized with the overall art concept.

"21st Century Girls" by BTS also doubles as a Pep-Talk Song where it encourages women to live their life however they want and love themselves regardless of society's criticism. The song starts with the band basically saying that you're amazing and you're worth it!

In the Homestar Runner short "One, Two," Strong Bad is shown singing a "girl power" ballad in the shower: "Look out, world! I'm an independent girl! Rollin' around like a motorcade!" It's one of the many instances of Strong Bad being shown as a lot more sensitive than he wants people to know.

Subverted in Crazy Ex-Girlfriend. Valencia's song, "Women Gotta Stick Together" seems like a song about female solidarity and power, but it quickly devolves into Valencia sniping and belittling every other woman in increasingly catty ways.
