"L'amore è femmina" (Italian pronunciation: [laˈmoːre ɛ fˈfemmina]; English: "Love is female") is a song co-written and recorded by Italian singer-songwriter Nina Zilli. It was released on 13 April 2012 as the second single from her second studio album of the same title.

It was produced by Michele Canova and written by Zilli herself with American songwriter Charlie Mason (who went on to win the Eurovision Song Contest 2014) and Swedish songwriters Christian Rabb, Kristoffer Sjökvist and Frida Molander. The song was selected by the Italian broadcaster RAI to represent Italy in the Eurovision Song Contest 2012, which was held in Baku, Azerbaijan. At the contest, it was performed in a bilingual English–Italian version titled "L'amore è femmina (Out of Love)".
