I can tell you ...
In writing this article, the first thing I've had to do has been a problem: writing about what. It's not that I don't have a subject in my head, but I do too much.
I can tell you that the Bilbao City Council recently made a controversial decision: Prohibition of the male (cruising) league in the surroundings of the port of Egirleta. It is probably the most surreal decision he has taken for years and which is very hopeful. Because you can't play to move around the mountain, nor can you do the pedaling or the porch. It may be forbidden, but it may not be prevented. Of course, what Franco did not achieve is not going to be achieved now by the PP (the one who tabled the proposal) and the PNV (the only party that voted in favour).
I can tell you that more cases of homophobic attacks are taking place recently, which are accused of hypocrisy on the part of those who carry out the abovementioned prohibitions. I am referring to hypocrisy, because, in addition to restricting the freedom of people with such impositions, the message they convey to society is that relations between those of the same sex are not legitimate and, in some ways, justify some to mock or attack physically.
I can tell you how some politicians use their homosexuality in a partisan way to give an image of solidarity and modernity, although then they behave in a xenophobic and racist way. In the CAV we have known in recent times that the public exit from the closet has served to generate political sympathies; moreover, it has also been able to use its marriage to try to polish the public image.
I could tell you, throwing myself into another field, how in many cases, regrettably more and more, I am disappointed to see how little the Basques really value the Basque, at least once out of the folkloric. For example, and it is no more than an example, in the tribute paid by his colleagues by profession to the death of Aitor Mazo, almost everything was in Spanish. It hurt me that in the voices of Carlos Panera (Aitor, director of the Mascarada, who started making theatre in Basque), the words of praise should be in Spanish only, or those of Asier Ormaza, companion and friend of Aitor... In my opinion, the only one who demonstrated dignity was his daughter Nerea, who read to her father an emotional letter in Basque.
Ah! I haven't finished my space yet without deciding what to write about!

November 19 is World Bathing Day. Even today, in the twenty-first century, many workers here in the Basque Country do not have the right to use the toilet in their working days. Many transport workers are an example of this.
Toilets are the key to public health and play a... [+]
In Sociology of Education there is a classical question: Why does the education system exist in a society? The answers to the question are numerous and change according to the time. But among them, it should be noted that the main objective of the school is the creation of... [+]
We know that artificial intelligence is representing many fields in human beings: comfort, speed, efficiency ... We've been led to believe that human endeavor is an obstacle to the speed needs of this capitalist world. The aggressions to reduce our chances of doing, doing and... [+]
In recent weeks it has not been possible for those of us who work in architecture that the climate phenomenon of Valencia has not been translated into our work discourse. Because we need to think about and design the path of water in decks, sewers, plazas and building parks. We... [+]
Self-esteem sometimes seems intimate. But if self-esteem is about the image that you have of yourself, about the value that you give yourself, you'll also have to see the decisions that you can make. What value does someone who can't decide have? So we start to look at our mother... [+]
The Sanmartines are well known in our homes, as it is time to kill the pig. However, many people will not know that before St. Martin's day marked the end of the agricultural year. And that was no nonsense. In fact, at the end of the year, I had to pay an annual rent to my... [+]

“You learn walking and singing.” This has been one of the subjects this week in the groups of C2. It wasn't about learning to sing or walking, it was about using the future correctly. The activity has given me what to think and I've wondered how we learn to teach. I've heard... [+]
The survival of the Basque country is not the only problem that the Basques play in the political game, but rather, as a more characteristic element of Euskaldunisation, the one that most reflects our situation. It shows very well what does not appear so much in other areas... [+]
With the words of poet Vicent Andrés Estellés, I am one among so many cases, and not an isolated, rare or extraordinary case. Unfortunately, no. Among so many, one. In particular, according to the Council of Europe, and among other major institutions such as Save The Children,... [+]
The housing problem is a structural problem that comes from far away. What should be a human right is nothing more than a subjective right. I say that it is a fraud because, although all the institutions and all the political parties say nice words, they do not grasp the... [+]
Why concerted teaching?
The new Education Act adopted by the CAV against most public school officials aims to ensure that concerted education is free of charge through the financing of public authorities. The Spanish State has also announced a significant increase in public... [+]

We have been hearing the views of Iñigo Errejón on the accusations of male violence in all media and social media for a few weeks. In addition, many controversies are emerging: how we should denounce women, how our sexual relations should be, recognition, silences of those who... [+]
