Orange Find Out Balance 2010

SR DIRECTOR OF THE COUNTRY NO

Mr . Director, a few days ago appeared in the newspaper El Pais, an article by Javier Marias "Woman as danger" . Writer and member of the Royal Academy, to be exact. Let me in this regard to express to you how painful it is to see some members of that Academy photographing including books, sitting in solemn ceremonies or grand air and hand strategically placed on the chin, and so pose to discredit total its purported image of wise people, or at least thoughtful and rigorous, as the opportunity it needed.

The prestige of a person gives the rigor in each of their presentations. Are useless gimmicky and bombastic words, if what is said has no objective basis and is meaningless.

Javier Marias speaks in his article of the things that would on an issue if you were a woman. And from there begins a series of inaccuracies, no documented , odes to posmachismo and little else. In the first instance and introduces us to what would be, if you were a woman, with that number of redundancy with the proto compositional element; protofeminist , proto Minister, that as a member of the Royal Academy should, in my opinion avoided. But as I was saying Sr. Director, talks about what he would do if he were a woman, and that feminists do not. Here Javier MarĂ­as is presented only as El Salvador to the image of women and their dignity, the Messiah who has to illuminate our path, because no one else has been able to see the true nature of the problems of women in advertising and communication media . It should be noted the author of this article that in 2007 35.6% of those reported in the Observatory of the image of women in the Women's Institute, were men. From this we can conclude two things the writer in question, for lack of documentation and it was not the purpose of his article, has ignored: the first one to defend the equality between two human beings, not necessarily must belong to the oppressed group, it only takes a little solidarity and sense of justice and second that there is a body created by the Institute for Women, to which I referred previously already raised in his report a comprehensive study of the portrayal of women in mass communication and advertising. Javier Marias wheel, and was invented years ago.

The conclusion is reached by reading this article is that if he were a woman, it is not, or a man who believes in equality between the sexes, nor is, not use a vacuum Article of perfectly content and dispensable from the journalistic point of view, simply to express their resentment person posmachista to call the women and men who justly claim equality and respect between the sexes: protofeminist , feminist outcry hipersubvencionadas or associations. Maybe if I read a report on the situation of women in Andalusia in terms of inequality, it would find a way to make frivolous claims, such as associations working to eliminate inequality are hipersubvencionadas . No doubt if it would be justifiable under his subjective point of view as equal to him, is not a necessary thing.

In contrast this article, I am glad to see a new men's movement for equality, not feel afraid to give women equal status in all sectors, by contrast, have the wisdom to realize that the development of pontencial the women are good for everyone and have found a comfortable space where they can also break away from the heavy burden of macho stereotypes and thrive. To them, they do not see in photographs presumptuous hand on chin, or distribute poisoned candy pointing to trivialize women what to do to fight for equality, to them, see them struggling just to reach that equality.


PD: Oh go, I said posmachista and is not in the dictionary of the Royal Academy!. Bad girl, proto-feminist.
