The Senate Chamber rejects the amendment by Senator Maiorino who asked for the possibility of adopting the gender difference in written institutional communication. (HANDLE)


The Senate Chamber rejected the amendment by Senator Maiorino who asked for the possibility of adopting the gender difference in written institutional communication.

The proposal obtained 152 votes in favor, not sufficient to reach the absolute majority necessary for this vote.

There were many procedural disputes in the Chamber, especially by the M5s, but President Casellati cut it short and defined them as "spurious and unacceptable", the senators, he specified, "should know the rules".

Exponents of the Democratic Party, M5s and Italia viva

have defined the rejection of the amendment as "very serious", a "step backwards".

The Maiorino proposal (M5s) aimed at introducing "the use of inclusive language" into the Regulations was voted by secret ballot and obtained 152 votes in favor, 60 against and 16 abstentions in the hall of Palazzo Madama.

The amendment provided that the "Presidential Council establishes the general criteria for ensuring

compliance with the gender distinction in language in institutional communication and in the activities of the administration

through the adoption of formulas and terminologies that provide for the presence of both genders through the relative morphological distinctions, or avoiding the use of a single gender in the identification of functions and roles, in compliance with the principle of equality between men and women " Furthermore, the proposals for the adaptation of the text would be examined by the Executive for the regulation.

Cirinnà (Pd): "Gender equality denied in official language" 


"Rejected now, July 27, with secret ballot the amendment to introduce gender equality in official language into the Senate Regulations. If this is the advance of the new Parliament, we have one more reason to fight hard. Our Italy believes in equality ".

She writes it in a tweet la sen.

Monica Cirnnà, rights manager of the Democratic Party.

Valente (Pd): "The vote on gender language is very serious"


"What happened today in the Senate is very serious. Brothers of Italy with the complicity of the whole right expressed what they think about the role of women in society, asking

for the vote secret

on the amendment that would have allowed gender difference to be used in the official language of an important institution such as Palazzo Madama.

The knots come to a head.

Language is a fundamental factor of equality.

Verbalizing the difference means recognizing it, denying it means asking for approval.

The role is not neutral, it is masculine.

Preventing women from being recognized in the role they play means taking it for granted that that role is male prerogative.

The theme has never been set up for teacher or nurse, let's ask ourselves why it is posed for parliamentary or president.

Denying this step of civilization and progress to one of the most important institutions of the Paede tells a lot about the risks that a reactionary culture can trigger ". The senator of the Democratic Party Valeria Valente says this.

Malpezzi (Pd): "The right destroys gender equality in the Regulation"


"The right asks for a secret vote to destroy the amendment to introduce gender equality in the official language into the Senate Regulations. This is the reactionary right that wants to lead the country : for them women don't even exist in language ".

So on Twitter the president of the senators of the Democratic Party Simona Malpezzi.

Perilli (M5s): "A gigantic step backwards in gender policies"


"It was a gigantic step back in gender policies to have rejected the 5 Star amendment, first signed by Maiorino, on the adaptation of language in institutional communication and work of the Administration. Once again we preach well and scratch very badly ".

This was stated by Senator M5S Gianluca Perilli speaking on the reform of the Senate regulations.

Conzatti (Iv): "The parity of language is needed, the stop is serious"


"Language is identity. What you can think and call becomes sooner possible and then real. For this reason, calling the role of women means that women can imagine themselves in that role. Gender language must also enter the institutions and it is serious that today in parliament gender equality in language has been stopped, it is a missed opportunity ".

Thus in a note the senator Donatella Conzatti (Iv), secretary of the Femicide commission.

Malan (FdI): "No to ideologisms on language"


 In fact, neither today nor at the time of the Constituent Assembly, has ever thought that when the Constitution says that 'Senators are elected by universal suffrage' it means that the senators are elected in another way.

Women defend themselves with the criterion of merit, with adequate support for those who hire them, with safe cities where they can go out alone, with attention to women and men who take care of the family.

Finally, it is curious to note that almost all the supporters of 'gender' language have supported the Zan Bill, for which 'gender' is questionable, self-attributed and changeable ". This was declared by the senator of the Brothers of Italy, Lucio Malan, member of the Board of the Senate Regulations.
