Some considerations about gender

Sometimes we are situated in situations which is affected the integration of women like harassment or violence in subway, university even job. Since a lot of years ago woman has suffer that and others types of belittling and oppression.
Sociology studies that situation and the construction about the gender and how in the process of socialization teaches to kids the role in future life and the activities that them can do.
But in my opinion we are in presence of contradiction because much of the material and papers in sociology and others disciplines are wrote and still writing by men and they don´t know about real situation in woman quotidian life but through him is possible give more importance and raise awareness this conflict which affect all society.
Unknown liquid gender


To give more support to the previous paragraph I will illustrate with examples in specific with Gayle Rubin (who is not sociology but we has a class about her and gender) about her text "the traffic of women: notes on the 'political economy ‘of sex" where she realized a critic to three authors: Freud, Marx and Lévi-Strauss.
In simple words, she says that theories are based only in men. For example, in the case of exploitation mens suffers consequences, en relation with relationship (family) woman is object in marriage and condition to trade and allows peace of family and at the moment to adopt some position in sexual role is woman who have change her interest to "falo" because she can't never have the position of men and brother only can wait to receive that benefit.
