Mexican sex comedies are films within the comedy film genre of the Mexican cinema industry, though in a class of their own. The storylines typically revolve around themes of sexploitation and "Mexploitation". They are mostly recognized as low-quality films with fairly low budgets. The genre peaked in popularity in the 1970s and 1980s. Although the films had sexually suggestive plots and used numerous comedic innuendos and double entendres, they were not overtly explicit, and were never considered to be pornographic. Furthermore, it was not uncommon for the male characters in these films to comedically fail in their attempts to win over, or have sex with, the female characters. When a man was successful in wooing a woman, the performances were deliberately over-exaggerated and pantomime-like, aiming to generate laughter more than arousal. The genre is similar to, and possibly influenced by, Italian erotic comedies. The popular term "ficheras films" came from the film Las ficheras, produced and released in 1975, which told the stories and experiences of many dancing women who entertained men at nightclubs.

This is the list of members elected in the 2017 Constituent National Assembly of Venezuela following the 30 July 2017 elections. The first session of the assembly began on 4 August 2017 in the Oval Room of the Palacio Federal Legislativo. The Democratic Unity Roundtable—the opposition to the incumbent ruling party—also boycotted the election claiming that the Constituent Assembly was "a trick to keep [the incumbent ruling party] in power." Since the opposition did not participate in the election, the incumbent Great Patriotic Pole, dominated by the United Socialist Party of Venezuela, won almost all seats in the assembly by default.
