El sexismo a través de la cultura audiovisualun horizonte coeducativo para la prevención de la violencia de género entre adolescentes

Abstract

Sexism is a cultural pattern that is opposed by most current democratic laws today. However, as a consequence of the patriarchal structure that has existed for centuries, sexist discrimination remains entrenched and continues to be fueled. As we will see later, this is due, in large part, to the perpetuation of the implicit sexism that is part of the media imagination that surrounds us. Education is called to play a fundamental role in the fight to build more egalitarian human relations in any situation of discrimination, and in terms of gender equality, through coeducation, it has the opportunity to establish numerous objectives for change. In the midst of the digital age, where audiovisual consumption is the order of the day and occupies a notable number of hours in the lives of people, and of the youngest, audiovisual products transmit, perpetuate and naturalize lifestyles, behaviors, beliefs and attitudes. For this reason, it has become urgent and necessary to co-educate in audiovisual content. Audiovisual production should be a key tool to deactivate and act against dynamics that enhance inequality; it can act as part of an educational strategy that dismantles the stagnant gender stereotypes that are transmitted and promotes a change that substantially enhances the eradication of gender violence. This thesis is part of audiovisual gender studies through coeducation. Aiming to value the advances and benefits that co-educational teaching of audiovisual content would entail within secondary classrooms. Some actions towards equality are those that are developed in the educational field, where this thesis is framed. The general objectives pursued with the preparation of this thesis are, on the one hand, to promote a co-educational model that emphasizes the importance and value of co-education in the evaluation of audiovisual content that provokes, naturalizes and spreads inequality. To this end, this thesis is developed in different phases and covers several research disciplines, which work together as a gear to obtain results. The specific objectives are developed out of interest in the life circumstances and social environment of the students, but are also concerned with the vision of national experts in the field of audiovisual fiction, feminist film criticism and co-education. The result concludes with a documentary audiovisual product, immersed in a public reach website that aims to provide an open download link with the questionnaires that have been used in the field research to extract the data for this thesis. The methodology used in this thesis combines the review of the field of study, proposing at the same time a quantitative and qualitative development, from which an audiovisual practice has finally been developed, passing through its dissemination on the network and creating a website that is articulated as a multimedia product. The conclusions show that adolescents daily watch audiovisual content that is inappropriate for their age group and based on the critical capacity they have acquired to confront it. The Internet has become a powerful means of socialization among the world's young population, sometimes transmitting or reproducing harmful trends between them. Furthermore, many audiovisual contents only perpetuate unequal behavior against women. Through the theoretical framework developed in the thesis, we have verified, through multiple investigations, the great potential that audiovisuals can play in the transformation of gender relations
