🥳 Sunday of pants, coffee and good reads!

Take this opportunity to catch up on the week's columns and reflect with Diana J. Torres on an issue that concerns us all, censorship.

Let's get started!

✌🏻 | Censorship and algorithms

Voting, getting divorced, working, having better jobs and salaries, wearing pants... are some of the many things we can do that have improved over time thanks to the feminist struggle.

Diana J. Torres writes about all the profiles of different social networks where she has been censored for showing a nipple or walking 'with her boobs out'. Because the fight goes on and on until the wall falls, but today, almost 2023, nipples and boobs are still a taboo for the artificial intelligence of social networks.


🤔 A lot happens in a week....

This week we kicked off by commemorating the World Mental Health Dayand in this context we have a very interesting analysis of the activists who threw tomato soup on Vincent Van Gogh's tomato soup at Vincent Van Gogh's painting Sunflowersand if you haven't seen the movie Blondewe recommend you take a look at it; it will help you understand a bit about the possible mental health problems of Marylin herself.

We were also at the FIL of Monterrey 2022, where we had a series of intellectual duels that honestly, were very good, in addition, together with Bayer we awarded some women with the purpose of recognizing their work through words in the search for a better Mexico. Better Mexico and we signed the Pact for Women, which on this first occasion was signed by Martha Herrera, Secretary of Equality and Social Inclusion of the government of Nuevo León. 👏👏👏

On other topics: reflection on tradition over discrimination tradition over discrimination. On machismo: psychoanalyst Dr. Raquel Berman wrote about the intrapsychic factors that trigger some men to kill women. The Guacamaya leaks and the Sedena continue to be a topic of discussion and the analysis of the presidential bid to militarize the to militarize the strategy to confront insecurity with the National Guard as the main structure.

Here are this week's columns:

So far, thousands of women in Iran have taken to the streets, burning their veils, cutting their hair and demonstrating their right to live free in a country where freedom is paid with death... Don't miss it!
