Essay 2

Introduction

Within society, stereotypes have shaped people's minds about a body-mind relationship, accumulating a fascination for appropriate bodies in terms of the perception of beauty that has been established. That is why, depending on the time, these stereotypes vary, at first were assimilated to the curves of the body, understanding the fattest bodies as a sign of beauty. Later in the time of conquest and colony, Beauty took another representation of the body, assuming now the slender figure as the most appropriate body model and best aesthetic. The reproduction of stereotypes has been patented by the mass media, where there are various images of what society conforms in its mentality as beautiful and appropriate to be accepted within the system. Within the aforementioned stereotypes, the issue of body weight and the shape of its figure is the most noteworthy, the prejudice from this paradigm of perception have been the most noticeable in terms of the representation of discrimination.

Body

First of all it should be understood that it is understood by "Gordo fobia", this social phenomenon is described as: "feeling of repulsion or accentuated discomfort against the people considered fat, outside the aesthetic patterns" (Guioteca, 2018), in addition to "a bias Automatic and normally unconscious that leads to discriminate, objective and underestimate to overweight people, especially if those people are women "(Psicologiaymente, 2018).

This social phenomenon present in the society has demarcated lines of the perception of the people and their bodies, especially in the female bodies. Within the conceptions of beauty for women "standardization of a single type of beauty" (Neria, 2018, p. 64) is created, lines of thought are created according to certain types of body, which mark a goal for other human beings, who are in a told effort to achieve them, which is linked to the sense of approval, in the particular case of women, the approval of a man (which patented the heteronorma).

The Gordofobia as a phenomenon has been established by these standards, creating segregation and notions of discrimination from this term, creating barriers of interpersonal relations and guides  by superficial roads, this causes many of the people, Who suffer from overweight are a focus of rejection, allowing the reproduction of the stigma established.

Feminism approaches this subject from the domination of the human body, especially the female body, which is constantly subjected to beauty assignments that are installed to segregate, this decants in various illnesses and mental disorders, specifically in adolescence.

Conclusion

In conclusion, we can assert the like people to be ruled under a certain system, which seeks the production of patented paradigms in a productive future, manages to intervene also in the form of our body and mind, affected and controlled to Fit within standards not only of beauty, but also of behavior.

•         Body:

         - Feminism through the history

         - Actual Feminism

•          Conclusion

Introduction

Feminism is a social and political movement that begins at the end of the 18s which implies the awareness of women as a group or collective human, which visualize the unfair treatment within our society from the roles of gender taxes, which decant in the vision of the supposed superiority of male sex. The oppression, domination, and exploitation of that have been and are the subject of the collective of males in the bosom of the patriarchy under its different historical phases of production model, which moves them to the action for the release of their sex in various aspects.

Body

The French Revolution of 1789 marked the beginning of a current, linked to the egalitarian and rationalist ideology of the Enlightenment, and to the new working conditions that emerged from the Industrial revolution. In Western Europe and North America began feminism, which fought for the equality of women and their liberation. During that period, the main objective of the women's movement was to achieve the right to vote. Thus the suffragette movement was born.

After the suffragette period, the new feminism was created. At the end of World War II, women got the right to vote in almost all European countries, but in parallel there was a reflux of feminist struggles. This reformed current begins in the late 60’s of the last century in the U.S. and Europe, and falls within the social movements that emerged during that decade in the more developed countries.

Inside of contemporary feminism there are many groups with different tendencies and orientations, exist radical feminism, liberal feminism, Marxist feminism, Socialist feminism, de-colonial feminism and much more.

Conclusion:

In conclusion, with the recognition of the multiplicities and heterogeneity of the movement there is a crisis and great discussions in its bosom. Some talk about a third wave. It points out the relational character between genders and denounces the power structures that occur among women. The contributions of the psychoanalysis allowed visualizing the emotional manipulation that the mothers usually exert. It breaks with the prevalent idea of the victim woman. In the present century women as an active social group have been able to empower their image, has achieved recognition and achievements although there is still a long way to go.

Introduction 2

The feminist movement in Chile

Background:

Chile is a country with a sexist ideology and tradition; it is for this reason that the figure of the woman has been the victim of different discriminations and ill-treatment over the years, within this ill-treatment we can mention the culture of rape, which normalizes and justifies this act by holding the female gender accountable for their behavior or clothing. Also we can include the submission that the most of women suffer in a relationship, in this case, the masculine figure exerts a mastery of the female body, understanding this as an object more than as a person. For all this things, the women’s around the world fight for an equality of right and treat, that’s the start of a feminist movement, including important milestones such as the right to women's vote and the right to abortion.

Problem:

In Chile, the movement, despite having an explosion within the last years, has been subject of controversy due to the little seriousness that takes the male sex in the majority and to a certain part of the female gender, this due to the normalization of the machist behavior long since the beginning of Chilean society. This takes away the serious of the movement, for this, in the social media, so many of people make jokes about this, caricaturing all feminist slogans. The little restriction that is made to the people who repeat these behavior allows them to continue over time and that the society remains blinded under the patriarchal gaze, that objective and manipulates the body and female mind to as you want

Proposed Solution:

The solution for this constant mocking of the feminist movement would be to make the population aware of the problem that is deployed and the because it is struggling, leaving to reproduce as normal, sayings, jokes, images and words that correspond to damage to the genre female. First of all, as a first step, the state must take charge of gender policies that equal the political, social, labor and economic opportunities between men and women, putting society in an undifferentiated equity. Assuming this first movement from the state, it remains to teach within the educational system a gender perspective that helps our children grow with a different look, that helps with full development regardless of gender

SEMESTER 2 - 2018 INTERMEDIATE A

Free timeeeee

Hello everyone, in today's blog I'm gonna talk about some activity that like me to do in my free time.

The activity that I like to do is take pictures about everything, sometimes I walk alone around the city, discovering beautiful places (beautiful for me because when I take people to this places, they don't think the same), also take pictures of people in the street, unknown people that i find particular, beautiful and unique.

In summer I took pictures all day, I had a lot of time back then. But now, for the university and all the university requirements, I take fewer pictures, when I remember to take my camera and bring to the university, in that cases I take pictures of my friends, sun, flower or clouds.

I do very little truth but I am very passionate about this activity, for me; take pictures it’s like freeze the moment and to be able to observe it whenever it wants to be able to carry my memory at that moment cheerful or sad.

My mom takes a lot of pictures when I was little, so I have so many memories about my childhood and experiences with her, and mi family in general, it’s like habit acquired from her, so taking pictures reminds me of her so take pictures remember.

Environmental care

Hello, today in the blog I’m gonna talk about environment and facts about the care of this, well in first place I really don’t recycle like usually people do, for example When they gather many pollutants in boxes or recycling points but I try not to throw garbage in the street avoiding polluting even more the city, I also use the water only when I need it, I do not let it continue flowing without any use. Also I usually reuse plastic bottles or different pollutants to make handicrafts and give them new uses.

Now in terms of government of Chile, personally I think that this country don’t have a really conscience of the importance of environmental care, in fact Chile don’t have a specific institution for environmental care, maybe have a few campaign about this theme but the recycle and environment in general don’t have importance. So Chile have a deficit in this area, understanding that without awareness of something you cannot do anything about it, besides taking into account that the green areas are almost non-existent and raw materials are exploited.

 The most common elements that people recycle are plastic, glass bottles, cartons, plastic bags and some people make compost with fruit and vegetables shells, and in this case this people use this compost for plant manure.

The things can average people do to protect the environment could be get informed about the issue at first and then start taking action on this, for example have points of recycle in their houses, neighborhoods or communes, knowing that recycle it’s a task of all.

Orange is the new black

Orange is the new black is a TV series about women prison, I like this TV series because the plot it’s so funny but dramatic at the same time, what draws a lot of my attention, besides keeping me very attentive to what happens within the chapters, knowing that each of them ends with a shocking event that makes me continue to see more and more chapters until I realize that it is five o'clock in the morning and I still wakes up just to watch this series. I discovered this series through a friend of mine, one day we were at home drinking coffee, talking about life and asked me if I had seen Orange is the New Black, to which I answer that no, I had heard about it but I had never seen, she says to me: "You need to see this, now", so we saw the first chapter together, I love this series and I couldn’t stop seeing her until now that I'm waiting for the sixth season. I watch this series for a complete weekend; I spend four days seeing five seasons, I stay in my bed all day, eating snacks, drinking orange juice, I chicken out with this series. My friend who showed me the series also lent me his Netflix account to be able to see it quietly, because as I’m poor and I haven’t  Netflix, I had to find it on Internet pages where it did not look very well or had no subtitles that I wanted to have.

That’s all for today, kisses and hugs<3

JOB

Hello, today i'm gonna talk about a job i would like to do in the future, the job i would like to do is being an famous actress, i would like to do this because i really enjoy playing roles and being another person, the facial and bodily expressions that I would use would be wonderful for represent any person in this world.

The qualities or skills i would need to do this job will be having personality, being charismatic, to be able to adapt easily and vocation.

The job satisfaction I would get from doing this job will be working on Hollywood and being recognized around the world for many people, being able to be an example for other people.

The movies I would like to do will be for example: comedy, love drama, horror and dubbing in animation. I’m really versatile.

And with the people I'd like to act would be Zac Efron, Ryan Gosling, Nico Mirallegro, Theo James and Jake Gyllenhaal. I really love these actors, they are so handsomes and they do a good job.

Since I have memorie I would like to be an actress but the money and reputation of this job is and always will be bad, at least in Chile, what is very sad. Anyway even though I'm not studying theatre, I'm constantly going to workshops where I can act.

something i'd like to learn

Hey there, in today's post I will talk about something I would like to learn, the truth is that since I was very young I have always been very extroverted and interested in doing new things, in fact playing an instrument was always something I wanted to do but I didn't know which one, but my mom always liked music where the drums stand out too much and I always had videos of concerts where they recorded the drummer a lot, and I liked it. I've always wanted to go to a drum lesson and have one at home, but the sad reality is that I can't afford to pay for the lessons and even less for the drums, anyway I've tried to learn on my own but the pots definitely don't sound like drums, so goodbye to the beautiful dream of being an ultra-famous drummer touring the world. Continuing with the fact that I have a very good personality.... mmm.... well, I have a lot of personality; this influenced me in that as a child I wanted to learn theater. it seemed fascinating to me to be able to represent another person for a few minutes. so in school I entered the theater workshop, and I was very happy, but this only lasted until I changed schools, since there were no such workshops in the new one. But now, after applying to the theatre workshop for my first year of college, I've finally stayed and I love it too much.

Well that’s enough for today, muacks.

Film

Hello everyone, well today's post talk about the best movie that can exist (and I do not say only because it is my favorite haha), well the film I'm talking about is titled "I Origins", I discovered casually navigating the social network called Tumblr , where I saw an image that had been taken from this film, this image called much my attention, so I decided to look where it came from and in the search I found the film, I think this happened in the 2016 and since then I can't stop seeing her every so long. 

The main character is played by actor Mike Cahill, who plays a scientist specializing in genetics who has a special interest in the eyes, this falls madly in love with the eyes of a girl at a party, and for things fate finds and They begin a loving relationship, I will not give more details just to see and discover what happens next. In relation to the genre of the film, you could say 
that it is romantic cinema but in a certain way it has some mystical, spiritual touch within its content and possibly what I like most about the film. This film mixes romance, which is something I like too much, we could say that I am really a lover of love, and also this spiritual part, with reincarnations, souls and Non-earthly worlds. That's all for today, thanks for reading <3

THE GIFT

Hi people, well today im gonna talk about a very special gift for me, this gift is a gold ring that my mom gave me when I was fifteen years old, that birthday was the most special birthday because it was the last birthday birthday she was with me and it was also the most extravagant birthday I had, very sweet sixteen but version fifteen. There were many guests, lots of food, lots of gifts; I had to dance in this case with my mom because my dad was not invited hah. I felt too good that day, everyone gave me many hugs and good wishes for my life, besides that the food was too delicious; I think actually fattening three kilos in a single night. So when i saw the ring I remember her. Since my mom gave me the ring, I've used it permanently, in fact I do everything with him, I sleep, I come to university, I shower, I go out with my friends and so many other everyday situations. Now this ring as I said is always with me, in my hand, every day, this ring combined with everything so I really do not have the need to take it off for some occasion.

Thanks for reading, xoxo <3

activity 7

MARILDA IAMAMOTO

Born in Minas Gerais (Brazil), she is a Social worker and a Master in Rural sociology. Senior lecturer at the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ); She is currently a visiting professor at Fluminense Federal University (UFF). She was a consultant in the coordination of Aperfeccionamiento of the Staff of higher education (CAPES-Ministry of Education and Culture of the Government of Brazil) and still is in the Brazilian Association of Teaching and Research in Social service (ABEPSS-Brazil). She was a member of the research team of the CELATS and professor of the Master of Honduras (1983), as well as lecturer in several Latin American countries. Author of various classical articles and books of discipline.

What I like most about this author is his Marxist approach to social work and its specificity with the theme of the fetish of capital, which leads us to reflections on dominance, cohesion and alienation. Which in Social work covers a lot of titles and mentions, because many of the authors in some way or another fall into this approach.

activity 5

I took this picture on the day of Cultural heritage, which was exactly the 28th of May this year. In this photo we can see the highest part of a circus tent, along with some trees and bubbles, that are passing right in front of the first plane, you can also see very vivid and cheerful colors, which show the essence of the photo, that shows all the energy and good vibe that was maintained that day, full of laughter, music, paintings and culture of all kinds,too beautiful to let a perfect photo pass. What I like about this picture is the story behind this, when I remove the camera view after taking this picture, the man who was doing the bubbles said, "and now?". Just then I realized that he started to make more bubbles just because he noticed that he wanted to take the picture, this is why I love this picture.

Activity 4

Female masturbation and its erroneous connotation

In the first instance we understand masturbation as "stimulating the genitals or the areas erogenous by hand or other means to provide sexual enjoyment." According to the RAE, but this is not seen in an egalitarian way from the different genres.
If we talk about female masturbation tends to take it as something bad or improper but why is it taken from that point of view? The current patriarchal system mainly aims to dominate the woman, alienate her from her body in order to leave it at the disposition of man, for this reason female masturbation takes a reproachful character due to the opposition to this system, which assumes in the Female gender the obligation to please and satisfy the man, positioning in an estate inferior, as if being a woman was not enough to have the same rights as a normal person. The self satisfaction given in this practice without the need to resort to a phallus presents the risk of the release of taboos that are put on the female gender and therefore the liberation of the woman from the power that exerts in it the man.
This applied practice in women is often awarded negative concepts even though it is the first instance of exploration of the body itself, where we know the functioning of this and we manage to develop in the long term a sexual fullness by means of a Prior knowledge of the same subject in front of his or her own organism.
"For man there is but one genital stage, while there are two for the woman;" "It is much more at risk of not crowning its sexual evolution, staying in the children's stadium and therefore becoming neurotic." (The second Sex, Simone de Beauvoir, p. 18)
Simone de Beauvoir presents us as the exploration of our body allows us to advance through our stages and achieve the level of full development in each one of them, and that repressing it could truncate this progress, thus enabling problems in the long term. So, why do we assume that masturbation in us is a bad thing? The beliefs and rules that have been imposed within each society, mainly religious or other cases of other nature, compel us to think that we are not sufficiently independent and unable to make decisions about our bodies; What to do with it and how to treat it.
"We are born with a body organized to feel, there are specific functions that are activated at the time of receiving a pleasant stimulus (...), but cultural and religious norms do not allow women to enjoy the fullness of their sexuality." (sexologist Luz Jaimes)
The reduced acceptance of the feminine onanism is provoked also by the little knowledge of this, without information on the subject loses the daily routine and is assumed as something that has to be hidden, a forbidden and repudiatable action, which further increases the Negative judgments towards this.
The disapproval of female masturbation is mere ignorance; We can see that if we look for those two small words in a Web browser related to some pornographic content, which brings us to the vision that is given to women as a sexual object, a container with various holes where man as "the superior" will be able to satisfy any "need" that is presented to him in the sexual field.
By way of conclusion by the exposed in the essay we can say that female masturbation becomes negative thanks to the influence of established morality, according to the rules of conduct that are acquired thanks to this, acts such as masturbation in women often Branded as forbidden and immoral, although it would suffice with greater acceptance in terms of female sexuality, the knowledge of his own body and leave the morbidity that is imposed in front of the intimate areas of us. The change will start at the moment when we begin to liberate ourselves from the bonds of prejudices and of which they will say, of taboos and reproaches, in this instance of recognition such topics as masturbation will no longer constitute erroneous connotations, if not to the simple act of Self satisfaction and self pleasure.
