Gender violence in young people, approach
Introduction
Gender violence is a severe problem, against which you have to fight and act. This problem is based on an organization model based on the belief that man is superior to women. This model is called patriarchy, and contributes to show a clear domination of men over women, leaving this displaced, invisible and ridiculed.
Thus, such violence is considered as a way of separating women in all areas of their life and propagating a clear inequality between one sex and another
Developing
All this occurs according to a culture, values and perceptions that society has acquired over the years and not for something biological, innate. It is going to be treated, therefore, a changing, dynamic process that is varying as time passes, transmitting from generation to generation (Díaz-Aguado Jalón, 2014)
United to this, the problem of gender violence in adult couples seems to be the most normalized or the one we believe can be given the most, but the reality is another, since the fact that the fact that theteenagers have a macho ideology towards women. Therefore, authors such as María José Díaz-Aguado affirm that it is essential to strive in its eradication, and for this it is essential to influence the younger spheres. The young people of today acquire beliefs and values about what is the position of each in society, being stagnated in more traditional models, such as the aforementioned, the patriarchy.
Therefore, in response to the importance of influencing the youngest, the most appropriate scope to prevent all types of violence and discrimination over women would be educational, joining strength to achieve an egalitarian model that ends the stereotypes thatThey originate and in which both are at the same level, being educated in values and in equal sex.
In this way, my work will be based on a bibliographic investigation, focused on addressing gender violence through coeducation, a model that consists in educating boys and girls in equality in order to avoid the discrimination that exists because ofsex, get them educated in the same way and there are no differences because they have a sex or another, that is, there are no power relationships that give a greater domain to the male sex. An example that can be established here is that it is not the girls as more sensitive or calm just because they are girls, or that it is believed that boys will be colder for the same reason
Therefore, the coeducation what it seeks is that there is a solidarity and integral interaction between boys and girls and for this a series of strategies or coeducational ideas that we will analyze will be necessary, such as the development of gender equality programs, theTeacher training, the modification of the power distribution of the center, or the elimination of the sexist guidelines that exist.
In short, according to the above, as a general objective of my work, I propose:
- Know more about gender violence that is exercised among adolescents and establishing models of prevention of it, such as coeducation.
- Know what leads to young people acquire certain violent behaviors.
- Know how the problem of gender violence in young people affects.
- Find solutions through education, affecting both students and teachers.
Gender violence and young people.
Article 1 of LO 1/2004, of December 28, of comprehensive protection measures against gender violence, establishing that gender violence would be “any act of violence (…) that, as a manifestation of discrimination, the situationOf inequality and the power relations of men about women, they are exercised on them by those who have been their spouses or those who are or have been linked to them by similar affectivity relationships, even without coexistence. That it has or can result a physical, sexual or psychological damage or suffering for women, as well as the threats of such acts, coercion or arbitrary deprivation of freedom, whether it occurs in public life and in private life.
Gender violence is a phenomenon that has been carried out throughout history, manifesting the discrimination between men and women, and feeding an inequality linked to the submission or subordination of others about them. This is a manifestation of imbalance that has always been and that has been characterized by the attempt to dominate the female sex. Talking about the origin of this scourge means going back to the most primitive times where there were traditions that supported all this.
It is about seeing women as an object at the service of men, just by trying to maintain certain privileges settled in religion, in traditions or simply in social rules about coexistence. Thus, this practice of submission of female sex has taken place in many civilizations such as Rome,
This is, therefore, a violence developed under the domination-sumission binomial in which men have power and strength over women, while they are considered inferior to them in all aspects. All this is a problem of special gravity, since the way in which each one adapts to values and ideas, contributes to such violence to learn from very early ages, therefore generating the patriarchal system mentioned above, by which by whichWomen are forced to be service and take care of men, and thereby building the great inequality that exists between sexes and that leads to violence against women.
conclusion
We must also take into account the existence of risk and protection factors that will condition for better or worse that gender violence is exercised among younger spheres. As risk factors, personnel such as families with an education based on submission, power and violence can be mentioned;and structural ones, such as educational institutions that promote inequality between sexes by having gender stereotypes and authoritarian models based on the idea of violence as a way to resolve conflicts
On the other hand, as protection factors to reduce the risk of gender violence among the youngest population, we find that a complete secondary education for children will be carried out, that women have more facilities to access their abilities andto employment, and that there are safe places to which they can go asking for help, as well as easy access to them (UN Women, 2010)
