I would think twice about taking Sor Juana Ines de la Cruz seriously. Admittedly, I do not know a ton about her, but I had to read her in an introductory liberal arts class my freshman year of college, and it was taught by a very liberal protestant crazy feminist professor who quite liked Sor Juana's work. The work I read is called La Respuesta. I think she is looked to by feminists as a precursor to feminism. I do not know if this is a legitimate interpretation of her, however.
