Fix The Ironing Board

The subjection of women from exploitation

For CHILDREN'S VILLAGE, Libertarian Press Network, Year IV, No. 28, April 2011, p. Gender. 3


The insertion of the m ng usher in the lab market oral far from being an act of liberation , conditions was given by the needs of operating system employer. Precarization and salaries baj alg you were one of his consequences.



Today great job insecurity linked to unemployment and low wages produce that promotes a woman simultaneously reconciles the "obligations" imposed by patriarchal society (such as maternity and domestic work) with paid work. Under a system where the work is put to work for the interests of employers and machismo is held in benefit-producing that women get paid less for equal work ", we close the doors to jobs considered "male" and condemns us to a double working day, at work and at home. This does not escape that is imposed as a way of life of prostitution, ie, institutionalized rape just because they are women and therefore sex objects socially accepted and promoted. Noting these facts, we see that the woman does not work on an equal footing with men, and is doubly affected by the patriarchal-capitalist exploitation.

Traditionally, female labor participation took place only until marriage and then finally left home extra work due to the change of family status. In the late sixties, it starts to be maternity support and extra work home, with a second market entry work once the period of education of children. In the '70s, the development of capitalism and industrialization programs that appealed to the recruitment of female labor force (trying to cushion the crisis on low wages to women who agreed to replace the absence or low family income and to meet rising prices), produced a transformation in the sexual division of labor: be submitted within the home, required to fulfill the role of breeders and responsible work care home for male workers and suffer direct employer exploitation of a system that benefits from the machismo. Having to endure being employed in unskilled jobs, low wages, no stability and little unionized.


Today most women are employed in a small number of occupations and sectors (for example, performing administrative work or teaching in the nursery and primary education) as which can be defined as "occupational segregation." In addition to that usually occupy subordinate positions in the occupational hierarchy, while those entering management positions are overwhelmingly male ("segregation"). As a result of these and other phenomena women earn, on average, lower wages than men.

The difficulties of integrating women because of occupational segmentation in the labor market limits the range of occupations that are eligible, the employer's perception that women have higher labor interruptions due to pregnancy and parenting, and the deliberate spread of the idea that the contribution of women is central revenue family makes much of the female labor force engages in non-formal sectors and low productivity , resulting affected not only by the actions specifically directed against the workers, but also It would correspond to the precarious sectors in which it is inserted.

Is There Any Models Like Denise ?

Gender Agrupacion Point G in front of the commemoration of 100 years of International Women's Day working. Dear


Today, March 8, was a day marked by the history of social and political struggles of women in our class. As happened then, even repeated abuse, exploitation and both explicit and symbolic violence to them by a patriarchal system rather than an expression of the regime of domination in the family, is an institution to control reproduction life and the workforce. Strengthening the supremacy and power of gender over another and conditioning the social and sexual behavior of women.

have been centuries of resistance by women, but especially the latter is where there has been progress in the organization of women against patriarchal and capitalist exploitation. Since the second International Socialist Women's Conference is where establishing the International Day of Working Women as a method of fighting for the cause of women. But also of suffering and celebration by thousands who were burned by being on strike, hit by demands go rights or die for being riotous as the March 8, 1917 starting the Russian Revolution.

Today

just listen to the radio, watch television or read the headline of a newspaper to see how this celebration has become a celebration of struggle in the role that they have been awarded to women Historically, no more background than the call to consumer goes hand in hand with the perpetuation of the female role as natural, inherent and irrevocable.

consider women as home maintenance, responsible for the family and children, devoted mother who always has to look beautiful with a body sculpture, contrasts with the misery that exist in Chile. Where women have no health rights, reproductive rights, access to quality education, to decide for themselves about their lives and their bodies, to have and raise their children with the dignity befitting time and less to their right to abort. Where women work in precarious, poorly paid and unable to organize themselves at odds with their employers. In Chile, many women experience fear and silence of everyday violence, as a merely private matter, with the complicity of the state, religion and the patriarchal capitalist system. The same does not allow political participation, which restricts and coapts to their interests.

The Association G-spot, our social political organization with libertarian project gender, men and free women, welcomes all women of our people and everyone in the international day of women workers and fighters.

A 103 years to the day that jurisdiction n burned 146 women garment factory workers in the New York Cotton fighting for their labor grievances and 100 years after it declared on 8 March as International Day of Women, inequality and inequality remain.

There is nothing to celebrate, but much to fight.

Up the fighting and

Bunions While Running

Festival de Viña del Mar: This body is not mine!

Since any edge you look at it, the local media do nothing but objectify the image of women and render under a concept of "gender" pre-conceived within Chilensis macho society. Proof of this: the Festival of Viña del Mar. The event is shaping up as the "pick" in terms of sexism and exploitation of the image of women as a prelude to taking almost all of the mass mean "local.

I wonder if all those who enjoy the conference "festival-goers" do realize that what is passed there is the most decadent, vulgar and pernicious of all Chilean television unidimensionality. The objection that "despite the vulgarity" the festival actually has quality shows like the British show of Sting, is insufficient to make us believe that this festival is not an absolute intellectual turpitude television. It seems really impossible to "talk" about the quality of a festival you choose to "beauty queens" under the circumference of their breasts and the profusion of cles, and presenting artists whose performances are based almost entirely on the ruthless exploitation of women.

The question of the objectification of women has been a central issue for feminism philosophy since the mid 80's to today. Theoretical and Teresa de Lauretis, Laura and Susan Bordo Mulvez been discussed in depth how the media, particularly film, has built the women's subjectivity, subjectivity is almost always linked to lower secondary role and its part in Western society dominated by men and boys. That is why the movies have been called a "technology of gender "because they almost always conceived and correcting what is a woman and man (de Lauretis, 1987), or a machine builder of subjects possessing certain characteristics of the genre under which they are entitled (Clover, 1995). In this way, the woman who played both the media and cinema should, given their intrinsic nature, displaying breasts and legs, should behave subservient to the wishes and desires of man and usually must assume social roles and psychological characteristics "of its own "and" character "of its kind (the teacher or nurse maid stupid, good mother or bad mother, the Virgin or prostitute and a host of other clichés).

Given that criticism of the media in Chile is muted given the information monopoly run by companies such as Mercury and Copesa, it is virtually impossible to find in local TV news and in-depth analysis and comprehensive as to how the image of prostitute women in the country. By contrast, both the television sets as the national newspapers devoted much of their space to debate and discuss what is the sexiest diva festival, or which of them has the best attributes. Why no one calls attention Comments skewered by people like Patricia Maldonado unbearable falls on the teats or hair lunar beauty queens (is it possible?): at most, discontent at such statement is given by the admiration of the tits "paraditas" of their Highnesses. On that the media devote full days to analyze "the judge candidate for queen" whose suffering is supposed to-in incentive-criticism of his flabby flesh and the inelasticity of the tissues, forgetting that bulimia and anorexia are terrible diseases have hundreds of young people in this country.

seen Feminism concern how the media treat these issues and the way the woman becomes a victim of constant ridicule and uncontrolled exploitation of what it is, is or may become. Simply everyone has something to say about the woman in the media. Hence, both journalists and philologists, as well as political and exegetes of the califragilística have the right to say "how to be women, and in that jungle beast that is television, the Festival de Viña as the presidential palace There is plenty of material: every woman can see reflected their subjectivity. No intention of establishing a misplaced moralizing, I believe that between pornography and what is shown at the festival in Viña virtually no difference. In this sense, feminist theorists such as Jensen (1998) and Dines (1998) see the genre as the ideal channel through which you can "master" or "reduce" and "down" to women without any limits. The heroine of a pornographic film can be "penetrated with bottles, bearings and dogs, can be ejaculated and urinated" (Dines, p. 62), and always by a male whose sexuality is relegated to the background while the camera freezes in endless close ups compared to female genitalia, constantly penetrated by a large and vigorous phallus. Added to this are some stereotypes like the black savage and demanding, possessed by a "big black, African hope," or the oriental submissive, supple, always ready to meet the demands of the male of the West (Dines, 1998). Of course, the Chilean media do not exhibit any of this, but is it not the ruthless exploitation of female sexuality solely for the festival pageant and this event also one of the most eagerly awaited by lovers and "great" and "very masculine" Marco Antonio Solis, Chayanne Américo or? Media spent whole days to praise or denigrate the circumference of the nipple of the singer, or "philosophy" for the Amazons to be displayed as show animals on camera, they share the same desire for pornography: women to reduce an object that can not only be measurable and quantifiable, but exploited, destroyed, elevated to the heights or destroyed in all its dimensions.

Hence, the Festival of Viña event I look like a bad taste and worse bill. And most incredible is that talks Chile half "of what happened last night, devoting many hours to gossip and due diligence not just the jumps, jiggings and bellowing of the "singers" but also of women there are displayed as trophies of war for males with all their "stuff" well placed. I recently read a statement criticizing Movilh gay humor on display at the festival, which was nothing but endless clichés and stereotypes about what it means to be homosexual in Chile. I think and not only feminists, but the entire community should open a debate about how such events the woman cut up the pathos. Maybe we need a new Plato, in his Republic proposed a censure of the poets who are not educated but even more idiotic future citizens of the Polis.
