Our destiny: sexual liberation

Zarata mediatikoz beteriko garai nahasiotan, merkatu logiketatik urrun eta irakurleengandik gertu dagoen kazetaritza beharrezkoa dela uste baduzu, ARGIA bultzatzera animatu nahi zaitugu. Geroz eta gehiago gara, jarrai dezagun txikitik eragiten.

Four years ago we started the Hiruki Larroxa project. Since 2018 working on parity and LGBT+ issues, acting, reflecting, generating, researching... Transforming and turning along different paths. That is, we are three Maritxu who from transfeminism are developing training, consulting, research, accompaniment and comprehensive projects.

And in this corner that ARGIA friends have offered us, we will also reflect and encourage critical thinking. Raising different issues that we think are important towards sexual liberation.

"Is the LGBT+ movement falling into identity politics? What is the relationship between feminism and the sexual liberation movement in the
Basque Country?"

We bring to this space controversial or interesting issues. Because, at a time when Twitter debates have been imposed, we believe that these conversations should be conducted calmly and with the time they need, and not in the midst of the convergence and rhythms of digital social networks. Those of us who can write in this corner, as in the Txiolandia, have a character limit, but they allow more than making an endless bird's wire, playing more words, issuing different topics for debate and touching different edges.

When it comes to promoting critical thinking essential for social transformation, it is also essential to critically analyze and revolutionize thinking and the cisheterosexual regime. For this, along with feminism, sexual liberation can be an interesting and useful struggle. We have no doubt, because there is no liberation, except sexual liberation. That is why those of us here will be those in the struggle for sexual liberation.

The melons we want to spread are very varied. Is the LGBT+ movement falling into identity politics? What is the current relationship between feminism and the sexual liberation movement in the Basque Country? Is it true that the struggle for sexual liberation and/or feminism are sectoral struggles and do not have a real revolutionary force? Which fighting subjects enter transfeminism? Are the hegemonies that originate in the margins and dynamics that they generate liberating? Or are domain logic repeated here too? And exclusionary “feminist” attitudes, what? What if we're all deheterosexualized?

From time to time you will find us in this section with questions like this. Because, friends, we cannot fail to discuss and reflect upon ourselves, but it will not be possible to free ourselves from dominant logics and practices. Until next. A triple hug!

When the thirst for profit chokes

The disaster caused by the cold drop in Valencia has left us dramatic images, both because of the immediate consequences it has had, and because the future awaiting us has brought us forward: that this type of extreme climate phenomena will be increasingly numerous and serious... [+]


We have argued against the Navarre Energy Plan that does not plan

The update of the Navarra Energy Plan goes unnoticed. The Government of Navarre made this public and, at the end of the period for the submission of claims, no government official has explained to us what their proposals are to the citizens.

The reading of the documentation... [+]

Rusophobia before and now (II)

Since the disappearance of the Soviet Union, rusophobia has been growing. The concept of security of the UN Security Council of 2002 is very clear and indicates that the security and stability of the planet must depend on the states that do not intend to challenge the United... [+]


Name and existence of Umandi

Andoni Urrestarazu Landazabal was born in the village of Araia on 16 July 1902 and died in Vitoria on 21 November 1993. It is now 31 years old and I think it is time to recognize his name and be, because the legacy he left is not well known. Umandi used the name of a mountain in... [+]


Euskera with memory

Autobiography writing is, they say, the most effective tool for personal development, the most liberating. Pulling things away from the past and remembering them, it seems that it helps unleash the knots of the present. Yes, it helps to understand the present and to draw a... [+]


Wager on the future

I have done a review from the announcement of the pandemic to the tragedy in Valencia and have concluded that the disastrous institutional management that lies and forupe as firewalls is constant of the ruling class.

We do not have a valid substitute ruler as long as this... [+]

Carriers also have to go to the service

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... [+]

Depleting human creation?

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... [+]

Territory and architecture
Data to the territory

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... [+]


Hysterical materialism
To live

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 Basque farmhouse, a system of exploitation?

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... [+]

Between the two eyes

For a whole week we have talked about the book The Adventures of Pinocchio by Collodi, in the classroom of the university, with teachers of Early Childhood and Primary Education. Our main reference has been the nice edition that Galtzagorri published in 2011, which included the... [+]


Tools and training

“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... [+]


Appeal to Euskalgintza apolítica

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... [+]


Epistemic injustice in schools?

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... [+]
