International day of the Woman: for many things

Drawing of J. Howard Miller

It stays very much still to obtain the full equality between men and women. That's why we claim the International Day of the Woman. For many things:

  • Because we keep on charging less than the men to equal work.
  • Because we live in a society male chauvinist in the one that if a man goes well together with many is a male and if a woman goes well together with a few she is a prostitute.
  • Because there are great the women who die murdered by his couples, victims of the violence MALE CHAUVINIST (that not of genre).
  • Because the society keeps on accepting like something normal that the woman takes the weight of the domestic tasks and the care of the children.
  • Because we are neither stereotypes nor models of anything, this are what gives us the desire and point.

The list might be endless, you can continue it in the comments if you want. The true thing is that, although we have advanced enough, a lot of way stays for covering. The Spanish presidency of the European Union starts today the European Observatory of Violence against the Women. Because this mark does not know borders. This observatory is born on the initiative of a woman, the Minister of Equality Bibiana Aído, while another woman, Maria Dolores de Cospedal, believes that it would be necessary to eliminate the Department of Equality. Two very different women with opposite visions of the reality.

I am glad about the recent approval of the Law of Sexual and Reproductive Reproduction and of the Voluntary Interruption of the Pregnancy. Some of them have gone out to the street to be evident in against. The majority “the people of good, of religious education and daily mass“, although nobody would say it therefore it was going out of his mouths. I do not know because they get angry this way. If they want to have 20 children they can have them, but if they decide to abort already they will not have to go to London as formerly. Moan this hypocrisy …!

To end, I dedicate to all the women an appointment of my favorite writer:

“There is neither barrier, lock nor bolt that you could impose to the freedom of my mind”. (Virginia Woolf)
