A comlicated academic year so far
No
doubt one of the most important subjects that has become of paramount
importance now is 'feminism'. It is everywhere. So, there is no way you
can avoid saying anything about it. You can see telling messages
anywhere you go, such as one I saw on the scratched windows of a bus that really got me on my way home:
'Don't have sex if you're tired. Don't have sex if you just don't want
your partner to get angry with you: sex without consent is rape!'
To
be perfectly honest, feminism wouldn't have come up if female students
hadn't brought it up in the first place. So, university protests and
talks have definitely set a precedent for how gender stereotypes and
other institutionalized beliefs affect us for better and worse when
there is no fair treatment. This is why, universities are needed to be
the places where ideas must be debated and knowledge is then expanded.
Unfortunately, Chilean universities seem to be very late in terms of regulations on what in-and-out-of classroom behaviours are desirable
under given conditions and what constitutes discrimination against any
students, especially female ones. There is still so much we need to do
in regard to this matter. However, Do we really have enough power in our
hands to make those desired changes?
I think the same, we are a little behind, but we have progressed little by little!
