Have you noticed that many women are mistreated inside their home on a daily basis? Yes, abuse that ranges from verbal to physical. Consequently, both types of abuse are regularly exposed in the press, radio and television. Therefore, there is talk of penalties and sanctions against the alleged perpetrator of abuse. In some cases, the offender is arrested and prosecuted, while others remain unsolved, that is, absolute impunity.
Se han dado cuenta que a diario muchas mujeres son maltratadas en el interior de su hogar? Si, maltrato que va desde el verbal hasta el físico. En consecuencia, ambos tipos de maltratos, son expuestos con regularidad en la prensa, radio y televisión. Por lo que, se habla de penas y sanciones en contra del presunto autor de maltrato. En unos casos, se logra detener y procesar al infractor, mientras que otros quedan sin resolver, es decir, impunidad absoluta.
But, have you ever considered that there are men, who are also abused inside their home at the hands of their spouse, partner, friend, girlfriend or whatever title they carry? Indeed, as you just read! The man from ancient times, also receives blows and insults. Only out of shame to "what will they say", he is afraid to expose what is happening to him. And sadly, we find out when something serious happens.
Pero, han considerado alguna vez que hay hombres, que también son objeto de maltrato en el interior de su hogar a manos de su cónyuge, compañera, amiga, novia o el título que lleve? En efecto, como acaba de leer!! El hombre desde tiempos remotos, igualmente recibe golpes e insultos. Solo que por vergüenza al "que dirán", teme exponer lo que le ocurre. Y lamentablemente, nos enteramos cuando algo grave ocurre.
It should be noted that, as incredible as it may seem, both men and women are subjected to all kinds of physical and psychological damage, within their home. With the difference, that since the perpetrator of the events is not reported, this crime is hidden, until there is a death. Why am I mentioning this?
Cabe señalar, que por increíble que parezca tanto hombres como mujeres son sometidos a todo tipo de daños físicos y psicológicos, dentro de su hogar. Con la diferencia, que al no ser denunciada la autora de los hechos, éste delito queda oculto, hasta que hay una muerte. ¿Qué porque hago mención de esto?
I say this, due to events that occurred in my environment and that were referred to me by the victim, directly. For example, one day I requested a taxi service at 7:00 pm from the airport to my home, which was about a forty-five minute journey. I refer this, in order to make you see the following, yes, a little funny at the beginning, but that I did not expect. Well, I enter the vehicle, the subject smiles at me (I thought because I sat in the front with him). But no, he told me, miss, it's too late, if I'm honest I stopped because it reminded me of a girlfriend I had
Lo digo, por sucesos ocurridos en mi entorno y que me fueron referidos por la victima, de forma directa. Por ejemplo, un día solicité el servicio de taxi a las 7 de la noche del aeropuerto a mi hogar, que eran como unos cuarenta y cinco minutos de recorrido. Refiero esto, con la finalidad de hacerles ver lo siguiente, si, un poco jocoso al inicio, pero que no esperaba. Bien, entro al vehículo, el sujeto me sonríe (pensé porque me senté adelante con el). Pero no, me dijo señorita ya es muy tarde, si le soy sincero me paré porque me recordó a una novia que tuve
Next, I said -"ah yeah?" - He nodded. And after a while he tells me: "girlfriend of mine was terrible." I follow the conversation, and I indicate "if she was so bad why did you stop for me?", I point out that because of the time. He was right, even so I asked what bad things she was doing. He looked at me and indicated "she hit me." and I say "what? are you a masochist?"
Seguidamente, le dije -"ah si?"- asintió con la cabeza. Y al rato me dice: "mi novia era terrible". Le sigo la conversación, y le indico "si ella era tan mala porque te detuviste por mi?", señalo que a causa de la hora. Tenía razón, aun así pregunté qué maldades hacía. Me miró e indicó "me pegaba". y Yo dije "queee? tu eres masoquista acaso?"
Then, he turned to look at me with his eternal smile "hey, she beat me horrible." "But boy why didn't you report her? Don't you know that the law assists and you have rights?" "Friend I did" (the taxi driver replied). But, the agent laughed and called his partner saying out loud "this mommy lets herself be beaten, go and give her a good beating to see if she learns not to let herself be with the woman."
A continuación, volteó a mirarme con su eterna sonrisa "me pegaba unas palizas horribles". "Pero chico y por qué no la denunciaste? ¿Acaso no sabes que la ley te asiste y tienes derechos?". "Amiga yo lo hice" (replicó el taxista]. Pero, el agente de policía se echó a reír y llamó a su compañero diciéndole en voz alta "ésta mami se deja pegar, ve y échale una buena paliza a ver si aprende a no dejarse con la mujer".
Of course, the surprise was mine. On the other hand, I have two friends (boy and girl) studied my degree with me, became boyfriends and got married. Honestly, I love you both very much, and it was very hard to find out from him that she hit him several times. But, in her case, he did not return the blows so as not to hurt her physically, since he is a quite sturdy man, and he left there.
Desde luego, la sorpresa fue mía. Por otro lado, tengo dos amigos (chico y chica) que estudiaron conmigo la carrera, se hicieron novios y se casaron. Honestamente, los quiero mucho a ambos, y fue muy duro enterarme por él, que ella lo golpeó en varias oportunidades. Pero, en su caso el no devolvió los golpes para no lastimarla físicamente, ya que es un hombre bastante fornido, y se fue de allí.
All of the above made me understand that the man in his home can also become a victim, which can often be fatal. To conclude, I would make a call for attention in general: Men and Women, we are equally important within society, and our laws should protect us in the same way, because it must agree with me that violence comes from whoever comes, is and always will be. VIOLENCE, so take time to educate the little ones and let them know that in the face of violence you have to report.
Todo lo anterior, me hizo entender que el hombre dentro de su hogar, también puede convertirse en una víctima, que muchas veces puede ser fatal. Para concluir, haría un llamado de atención en general: Hombres y Mujeres, somos igual de importantes dentro de la sociedad, y nuestras leyes deberían protegernos de igual manera, porque debe convenir conmigo, que la violencia venga de quien venga, es y siempre será VIOLENCIA, así que tome tiempo para educar a los más pequeños y hacerles saber que ante la violencia hay que denunciar.
