Invisible violence
The parties are already ahead of the elections in May in Hego Euskal Herria. Almost every day we have the presentation of a candidate, the public announcement of the candidature of one group or another. The Equality Act established in 2007 the need for gender parity in the elaboration of lists, which requires the search of women and also of women list heads.
They say it's hard to find women who would like to go to the top positions, they don't seem to want. In order to convince them, the pressure is put back on them to take over and take the step. But as a friend asked me recently, why? To be killed in the claws of the patriarchy? The number of legislatures in which women remain in some positions remains to be measured, the number of times men repeat themselves as candidates and, above all, the reasons behind them. The violence recently denounced by a group of women working in the public forum is
present in politics. Some find it hard to see gender bias, because violence against men (some) is also provoked. But one thing is clear, maybe not (you) do it for being a woman, but yes (they) because they are men.
