Hundreds of times we participate in the women's movement or feminist, we are challenged by other political and social movements that challenge our modus operandi.
Those summoned are truly enriching, constantly forcing us to question our words and our actions.
We do not want to be in place for victims of patriarchy. Nor in the permanent complaint, so our expressions always have to do with the joy that gives us more than knowing we are free from subordination to want to submit.
That joy to which I allude, many times, makes our activities are views from those who do not understand their rationale and trivial.
We do not see the state as "guilty" of all our affairs, we are convinced that it is the patriarchal culture, or what some theorists call the sex-gender system, which reproduces and perpetuates our subservience . Thus the state remains in place one more link between all involved.
However, there are many indications that the issues that we install with our struggles have not fallen on deaf ears.
On the one hand, we see from the '90s is making a valiant effort by hegemonic powers to skim and depoliticize and institutionalize our struggles using the category of "gender" as a tool.
its practitioners and farmers do not permeate the matter of substance and usually limited to get women at a desk for a train or some enlightened us on what our experience of collective struggle knows by heart. It takes very good care of women that we are attending, listening, beneficiaries or victims, never actors. This need to re-institutionalize ourselves in passive role tells me who understand the power of our struggles. Otherwise they would not do much work.
But on the other hand, we have had to stop campaigning against some of our historic claims just because the effectiveness was achieved at the level of awareness. So we getting to vote, be removed in the Civil Code of the article that we included with minors and incompetents. Laws against trafficking, violence, equal marriage, universal child allowance. The intent of that we can discuss the right to decide over our bodies.
And this that our demands have not fallen on deaf ears it reinforces the situation that exists in Italy if Berlusconi. All its power and impunity will be brought to trial. A trial that will be casually carried out by a tribunal made up of women.
But what leaves me thinking about the specific case is the political power of the power of women's and feminist movements, accomplished what many years been trying in vain to the opposition political parties, or just all the "opposition" institutionalized.
The thousands of women who are self on all the squares of all the Italian cities began to be accompanied in the struggle for citizens and organizations who could not find means of expression.
were or are not accompanied by any officer or servant of "gender politics", which are required not to pull up to the plate.
Even for women legislators are corseted for coming by the laws of quota or quotas, other institutional attempt to domesticate and make us silent.
As we see, our struggles serve. And to be deepened to the point, for example, make the institutions at least have a willingness to listen and talk with us.
