Domestic violence (Problem-solution)
The gender violence is a reality in our society, machist society as I see. It has always been there, but, why? Obviously because of the absurd mentality of some men, who believe they are superior than women.
Recently, it is increasing considerably, a real and worrying problem. Again, the reason is that machism inculcated from our childhood, in media, but above all, at home. It only depends on us, take it as a part of our way of being and personality or, on the contrary, refuse it and condemn it.
A possible solution may involve to stiffen the penalties, increasing their duration for example. Anyways, I consider it a waste of time, because the abusers doesn't care about what is changing regarding laws and justice, if they want to attack their wifes or girlfriends, they will do it regardless the consequences.
Another potential solution is to raising awareness from childhood. In this manner we ensure that respect and gender equality is what predominates in the future (prevention is better than cure). For this reason, I believe it is the most logic solution.
To finish, I just can say that if we fight all together against machism as a united and mature society, some day we will finish with it.
This is a very important issue. Thank you for sharing this post, Daniel. I love feminist men and detest "sexist" ones (yes, the word "sexist" is much more common than "machist", so I recommend to use it), and I agree with you that we need to fight together against gender violence, since it is destroying the life of many women and children.
