Cuando una empieza a leer a las teóricas feministas y a ver el mundo desde las gafas violetas: la división sexual del trabajo es una de las bases fundamentales del sistema patriarcal. Las mujeres en lo privado/reproductivo y los hombres en lo público/productivo. Y hay mucha gente que afirma que esta división ya no se aplica, ya que las mujeres estamos completamente integradas en la fuerza laboral. Pero, una vez más, estas afirmaciones subestiman al patriarcado mutante.
Feminist talkCiberfeminismo e a apropriação da internet
Nos últimos anos, o movimento feminista começou a transbordar as bolhas de grupos sociais. A campanha e o estudo Chega de Fiu, realizado em 2013, conduzido e publicado ao longo de 2014 pela ONG Think Olga e a defensoria Pública do Estado de São Paulo, jogou holofotes à violência de gênero que a grande maioria das mulheres enfrenta, potencializado por questões raciais e classe econômica.

Feminist talkThe right to scream: Research on sexuality, internet and communication
This edition is an exploration of the multiple layers of the relationship between sexuality, rights and sexual expression and the internet. Does it open up new avenues and forums for expression, or does it expose people to more variations of the violence, abuse and harassment that we face onground/offline? And is this even a question to ask, since it is now inevitable that we are all embedded in technology, whether with or without our participation or consent.
Where have all the queer women gone?
How the stories of movements for queer liberation are told is a historically complicated thing. What and who constitute the gay rights movement is a perennial question to which we know now clearly that there is no one answer. There is no homogenous ‘LGBT’ community in any country, nor is there a global homogenous ‘LGBT’ movement, with homogenous sets of values and agendas

[Columna] Ser o no ser anónimo, ahí el dilema
Cuando estaba en el colegio era común entre las niñas de la escuela pasar en clases un cuaderno en el que respondíamos diferentes preguntas: nuestra materia favorita, color o programa de tv que más nos gustaba. A medida que pasaban las hojas del cuaderno, el tono de las preguntas subía hasta preguntar quién te gusta y si habías besado a un chico.
Éramos sinceras con nuestras respuestas porque creíamos ciegamente en el anonimato del “chismografo”, hasta que alguien se enteraba quien te gustaba y pedias a gritos que te tragara la tierra.

Making a feminist internet: Building movements, remembering resistance, hacking security and care
Over 80 people engaged in wildly different kinds of feminist activism across the world gathered together to discuss what does it mean to build movements around feminist principles, women’s rights, sexuality and related issues in the digital age. From the cataclysmic and profoundly loud speaking out that took place spontaneously across varied contexts with #metoo to understanding, owning and building feminist infrastructure, there is a lot that we can do as feminist activists.
