Abstract

SAN MARTIN, Graciela Raquel Ezzatti. La imagen social de la femineidad y masculinidad en la enseñanza secundaria en Chile. Educ. Rev. [online]. 2009, n.35, pp.95-106. ISSN 0104-4060.

The social image of Male and Female young students in Chilean secondary education is directly related to the couple relationships they establish. Unfortunately, in Chile gender violence is a daily practice and women are expected to be submissive to the male's will. If one understands which social images emanate from masculinity and femininity, then one will be able to find out the origins of violence in couple relationships. The article analyses femininity's and masculinity's social images of secondary students in their couple relationships in Chilean educational establishments of all socioeconomic levels. This text is part of an investigation titled: Study of social and gender representations in educative interactions between teachers and students of secondary education.

Keywords : Social Image; Female; Male; Violence; Gender.
