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.

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.
