Isabell
Allende is well known as a feminist, she is a successful woman who doesn’t
forget about others women most unfortunate than her and that we can see in her
talk “Tales of passion” in which she expresses his opinion about sexism and
how the world is dominated by men.
In the talk Isabel
Allende named a few women who accompanied her in the Olympics, she describes as
strong women which fight with the prostitution in some countries, the forced labor and she make us to think about how “privileged” we are to be
in a part of the world where this problems in this time are becoming more
criticized, because in others parts of the world women are treated unfairly and
if we lack a lot to reach equality, for them it is forbidden to even think
about the concept.
The situations of
sexism in our country are in the areas of work, in educational institution, in
sports, because the mentality of the people still closed to think otherwise,
especially the old generations. The woman usually earn less than men, are more
criticized for their actions with everyday expressions like “act like a lady”, there
are not many women in power in the world, so they have no female representation
in the country's decisions, women are raped, kidnapped, censured every day in
the world and we have to stop that, Isabel Allende said as a joke the world
works bad for the few opportunities for women's participation and domination of
men in all areas.
In my opinion Chile it’s a patriarch country , but the young generation
have the concept of equality every time more present and the girls of our
generation fight with gender discrimination every day, it is not impossible ,as
the writer says, make this world good.
