-STEREOTYPES AND DISABILITY 'feminine-Betty Giromella
in so-called modern technology, such as that in which we live, human stereotypes are a precise location because the image that each individual has of himself, is his ticket to come right to be part of the community considered by most civilized, orderly and organized in hierarchies of power, but, unfortunately, not included for those people who are apparently different from others, for certain characteristics, or physical or mental limitations of variable entity as people with disabilities. The latter, because of their peculiarities are not fully satisfying, those aesthetic or behavioral wrongly recognized as key elements of the human being.
If we try instead to immerse ourselves in the diverse world of disability, and do so on the assumption that the object to consider is, first of all "person" and not something totally alien to the classical parameters that characterize and define the individual " able-bodied "word synonym for" Normal ", we understand that our mental conditioning of prejudice, stereotype creates true diversity, in a perspective view destabilizing, and certainly not as the value of enrichment for the company.
Within this complex reality, and not easy to interpret, the women with disabilities, is often faced with a discriminatory attitude even more pronounced, because the female figure, from the very beginning of its historical identity, has always wrapped itself several roles, including the most important thing, is that of procreation and parenting, which physical efficiency, however, presuppose a certain tipo.Se then we add to this, the difficulty of approach that the majority of people demonstrate in front of a woman's body violated the disease and, therefore, made little harmonic compared to the fees beauty recognized by the society, and proposed daily by the media and various glossy magazines and the many lovers of cosmetic surgery, we realize that we are still far from building a society truly more men and women ...
From my point of view of women with disabilities who live issue, for a long time now, I would say that of the the path of a rough life, it would be very important to play their full potential, however small they are, in order to counter and make an assumption collectively discuss and amend recognized right and, therefore, unannounced. Moving in this direction, probably, we may cancel the distance that exists between what is visible to what makes an individual aware of himself.
