Publisher Description: «El machismo es la idealizaci n de la violencia como medio, como fin, como instrumento educativo coercitivo; es una trampa que normaliza lo inaceptable. Con estas palabras Lydia Cacho define el punto de partida de este libro imprescindible. #EllosHablan son testimonios de diversos hombres que hablan de su infancia y ponen en evidencia la violencia que vivieron en su entorno. Ellos nos dejan ver c mo en el ambiente hogare o y hostil, los ni os normalizan aquello que m s tarde detonar en relaciones verticales, violentas y discriminatorias que avalan un sistema de impunidad y paternalismo salvaje. En este libro Lydia Cacho va de nuevo a contracorriente; acompa a a los hombres a mirarse al espejo en busca de un di logo abierto para entender los or genes de la violencia. La autora nos invita a pensar desde otro lugar para desmenuzar esto que llamamos el hombre normal. Una investigaci n que busca replantear el liderazgo masculino; cuestionar la sumisi n ante la violencia a fin de que ni os y j venes tengan nuevos asideros para construir su identidad sin atavismos. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION "Sexism is the idealization of violence as a means, as an end, and as a powerful educational instrument; it is a trap that standardizes the unacceptable." This is how Lydia Cacho defines the starting point of this important book. #TheMenSpeak are life accounts told by various men who shine a light on the violence they experienced around them during their childhoods. They show us how in a hostile home environment, children normalize what will later turn into violent and discriminatory relationships that endorse impunity. It is shocking to see that sexist violence continues on a rise during the 21st century, especially femicide. It seems that violence and inequality have no end. In this book, Lydia Cacho invites men to look within themselves in search of an open dialogue to understand the origins of violence. This is an investigation that seeks to re-evaluate male leadership and question the submission towards violence, so that children and young people have new ways to build their own identity without holding on to old behaviors. |
