every day a woman dies in the hands of a violent man. Every day a name, a photo and a sinister end. The figure of a femicide every 31 hours repeats and repeats and even shrinks as it passed the year. The result again and again say this type of fatality is the speed that we have to get to us, as a society, to lose, at least, a woman by day. This Monday the news of a 20-year-old girl assassinated to blows at El Palomar resonates in TV and media Web sites. Next to the body of the young police officers found the boyfriend, unconscious and with nylon stockings attached to the neck. They suspect that he committed the femicide and then trying to commit suicide. That the victim wanted to end the relationship and like it not, killed her.
Ailen was killed with blows by her partner.
Looking for information about Ailen Belén Alicia Decuzzi I found another femicide during the weekend happened in Laferrere and other wolves. María Carmen Iglesias was 46 years old when she was stabbed by his family Antonio Alberto after a fight (Antonio already had a perimeter) and Silvia Gemignani, 56-year-old, was killed by Edgardo Raúl Rodríguez, who was also his family. He, after killing her, committed suicide. It should be noted that this count of murders are only those which appear in the media. Outside are those who are not even reported or does not appear in any newspaper. This horror of private ownership of the male on Monday from the account of Twitter’s Radio Mitre took note and threw: “which team has the most beautiful women?”.
And you wonder, what have to see that Tweet with this note? What they have to do with such comments femicide? A lot. Maybe even everything. The root of these murders is the macho system that teaches men than women, in addition to its property, we are decorative. What is requires us always is to be subtle, submissive and not be protagonists of nothing except notes on “cute” or “ugly” that we are. But that the media give this line lowering makes sense. We think that they will not even one hundred years since women can vote (by pure force of feminists who fought to do so) but that didn’t have the civil capacity to make financial transactions without the permission of our husband until 1968. And not to mention parental that was recently modified in 1985. I was born in 1985. Until that date, our mothers had no capacity or decision-making power whatsoever on their own sons and daughters. Having these fresh dates in the head, which means and that men believe that we are their property, have, at least from the point of view of historical and legal coherence. Data that speak alone, according to the national registry of femicides in the “mumala” Observatory, between January 1 and November 10, 2018 is produced in our country 216 murders of women in the context of violence against women. Of the total of cases relieved in the print media, 191 correspond to femicides in women, while there were 21 femicides linked women, men, girls and boys, and 4 trans/travesticidios. 93% of femicides were committed by men with close ties to the victims (partner, ex-partner, relative, known). While 22% of these women had filed any complaint prior to her attacker, 12,5% had dictated any judicial protection measures. Of the 191 killed women, 14 were girls and adolescents under 15 years. 78% of them were abused and 42% were missing. In addition, 10 were killed by members of his family. All these figures must add the last 16 femicides occurred between November 20 until now, which gives an approximate total of 232 deaths by violence against women. The problem is the autoexpropiacion Palomar femicide happened then she wants to cut off the link. It, according to police sources, didn’t finish then killed her. “If you’re not with me are not with anyone”, is the typical phrase again and again repeated violent male partners before murdering them. And they comply. Literally. Many women learned long ago time was vivid violence gender-based violence and that was wrong. As a result of this awareness, a few of them all take courage and bravery to report (albeit a difficult process) and many others are afraid to try to get out of those sinister links of control and abuse. This attempt to rebel, to regain the right to a life without violence that must always have been, us does not get anything cheap. These girls, who want to get away from the blows, which seek to change your life, end up dead.
Luciana Peker journalist reflects on the matter and claiming that this virulence in the attacks and the hatred of women is directly related to feminist progress in our country. They killed them because now they can not control them. These women who loved and sought to be free are the indication of that macho privileges are endangered. A slow extinction since we still have to deal with owners as of Radio Mitre or read to an irresponsible journalism that still speaks of femicide as crimes of passion, featuring minors as”sexy” and endorses men accused of abuse and violation by calling them “influencers”. While femicide will continue happening because even the system did not change root and men continue to believe that we belong to them, millions of women already know that freedom is a right that this world owe us. And hence is not again.
