Foreword by Amelia Tiganus, author of La revuelta de las putas
A unique book that will help women identify sexist behaviors and respond to any situation where women's rights are violated or discriminated against.
Feminist self-defense is a strategy of individual and collective empowerment, developed by feminist organizations to help women identify sexist violence and defend themselves against it in three areas: cognitive, physical, and emotional. It is a tool of theoretical and practical resources for prevention and legitimate defense action. It is not just about knowing how to act in violent situations, but in all aspects of our daily lives, to be able to de-patriarchalize ourselves as the first exercise of self-defense.
This text helps us understand the world we live in and that lives within us, and how it is sustained on the pillars of gender normativity. That is, what it means to be a woman in a patriarchal system that not only has a bodily expression but also implies a social position of subordination, exploring the pillars of gender normativity. Being a woman in a patriarchal system not only has a bodily expression but also implies a social position of subordination.
A unique book that will help women identify sexist behaviors and respond to any situation where women's rights are violated or discriminated against.
