"Man! I Feel Like a Woman!" is a song recorded by Canadian singer-songwriter Shania Twain taken from her third studio album, Come On Over (1997). Written by Twain with her longtime collaborator and then-husband Robert John "Mutt" Lange, who also produced the track, the song was released first to North American country radio stations in March 1999 as the seventh single from the album, and later it was released worldwide in September 1999. "Man! I Feel Like a Woman!" is a country pop song with lyrics about female empowerment.

The song received generally favorable reviews from music critics, who praised the song's attitude and hook as well as Twain's vocals. Commercially, the song was also successful, reaching the top-ten in six countries, while reaching the top-twenty in Canada and number 23 on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart. It was even more successful on the Hot Country Songs chart, reaching the top-five and was certified Gold by the RIAA for 500,000 digital downloads. The song also won a Grammy for Best Female Country Vocal Performance in 2000.

The accompanying music video for "Man! I Feel Like a Woman!" was released on March 3, 1999, and it pays homage to Robert Palmer's "Addicted to Love" and Tone Lōc's "Wild Thing" music videos, featuring Twain dancing with buffed and blank-eyed male models. The song was the opening song on both Twain's Come On Over Tour and the Up! Tour as well as Twain's headline on the Super Bowl XXXVII Halftime show. It was also used to comic effect in a 2004 Chevy Colorado TV commercial, as well as being on the soundtrack of Brazilian telenovela Laços de Família. The song was also performed by American Idol winner Carrie Underwood during the fourth season, and by Britney Spears in her first movie Crossroads (2002).
