Andres and Fernada's presentation!


I really enjoyed Fernanda and Andres’ presentation because it was about sexism, which is in fact a controversial topic. They started showing us the famous movie Mona Lisa’s smile, then they started talking about what sexism is (meaning and some examples about it).
Fernanda and Andres explained us how this factor is not just related with house chores (like babysitting, cleaning, etc), but it is also about professions and salary, the differences between men and women remuneration is huge, we (women) receive less money than a man for the same job (XP).
They gave us a lot of information in where they showed us how women’s role had changed through years, and they gave us some examples about it, such as, the first woman president or the date when women started to vote.
Finally they talked about how we as future teachers could changed this because they feel that sexism is still present in the classroom (school). They gave us some recommendation about it.
We asked them some questions about it, and their answers were really appropriated.
Like I said before I really liked their presentation!!

That is all for today!

Kiss and Hugs
