When the famous photos and video appeared in which I put my
hand in
my
pants and accommodate my genitals
during a press conference, my friends advised me to downplay the issue and try to lessen the impact.
It is true that the image is unpleasant, and I apologize and apologize for it, but it depends on a medical condition derived from the
postoperative period of the hernia operation that I had this year
.
I have no other way to sit on a hardwood stool for an hour without doing so, nor is there a way to resolve the issue before I sit down.
I save myself any other explanation, precisely, so as not to be even more unpleasant.
With the total irresponsibility that gender editor positions tend to give, and without taking the least bit of trouble to call me on the phone and inquire about my explanation, the journalist Mariana Iglesias attributes what happened to my machismo.
Of course, he assimilates it to a series of detestable behaviors for which "men" would be responsible.
Thus, "men".
Like blacks, Jews or gypsies, guilty of a guilt established by the condition of birth
and not by the specific attitudes of each person.
The old regime disguised as the 21st century.
The political-legal Middle Ages.
In this way, Miss Iglesias joins the feminist bullying of the ruling party, without any questioning and with less interest in the facts than in justifying her salary.
With the scheme prepared and accepted by the tribe, it's time to set Frankenstein's monster on fire.
The Salem witches, but on the other side.
There is also the comment regarding Florencia Peña, with another false statement about my macho phrases against her and other women (sic).
Like Kirchnerism, the journalist Iglesias does not cite any.
They allegedly appear in my tweets, which are posted to an account that has been on a social network for 12 years with rigid anti-discrimination parameters without a single penalty despite the four K-trolls complaints it receives per day.
I never said the things that Florencia Peña did say about herself, nor would she say them to any woman, nor do I have anything against Kirchnerist women, except that: their Kirchnerism.
I argue with them in the same way that I have with D'Elía, Aníbal, Artemio and Alberto, and I am fed up that they try to victimize themselves when they cannot sustain a debate with arguments.
This attitude does not dignify or empower women but rather humiliates them, because - as the great Tzvetan Todorov said - the first moral obligation of a human being is not to place oneself in the position of victim.
The just struggle of women for emancipation and equality must not be reduced to sectarianism or taken to extremism, or used partisan by a fraction if we do not want what has already happened with Human Rights to happen to it.
The struggle of women is too important to be left in the hands of certain people, more concerned with the
pose and the protective shield
than with reality and facts.
A tricky feminism that confuses rights with its navel.
Well helped by helpful journalists, as always, to the ruling party;
that ruling party responsible for the fact that women arrested for violating the quarantine died by suicide in a police station, that others had to take refuge in the mountains to escape the persecutions of Gildo Insfrán, that thousands had to leave their jobs to take care of their children because the Government schools closed.
There is no place for these women on the government agenda, but there is time and energy to control, with the magnifying glass and with the help of tricky feminism, the tiniest aspects of the enemy's life.
