Abstract

GUILHERME, Alexandre; COSTA, Joacir Marques da; ALVES, Camila Aloisio  and  SANTOS, Cristiane Silveira dos. Expressions of male chauvinism among university students in an institution in Southern Brazil. Avaliação (Campinas) [online]. 2023, vol.28, e023024.  Epub Nov 24, 2023. ISSN 1982-5765.  https://doi.org/10.1590/s1414-40772023000100038.

This article addresses the theme male chauvinism from the results of descriptive statistical analysis arising from the study "Violence in the University Population". For this, it was used as method the application of the instrument IV-SOPRA (Index of Violence Suffered and Practiced) among students (n=510) of a public university in the south of the country. With this, our general objective is to present partial results of descriptive statistical analyses produced in the scope of this project and to reflect on the subjectivities behind these data. The descriptive statistical analyses about machismo were carried out from the viewpoint of the spectator, the perpetrator, and the victim of machista manifestations, which raised different reflections. Beyond the numbers we seek to understand the concept of machismo. We believe that this paper is a great opportunity to discuss the university context that, besides being a reproducer of social behavior, needs to be a space that constructs new perspectives and new concepts that work towards a more just and egalitarian society.

Keywords : machism; violence; difference; university.
