Inclusive language and the social advancement of women in the II Forum on equality BE Woman | BE Toledo

BE Toledo has organized this Thursday the II Equality Forum «The power of the female voice». An activity, included in the festival FEM, which started with a presentation on inclusive language by the journalist from SER Isaías Lafuente.

Very critical of the attitude of the Royal Spanish Academy when adapting the new uses of language, has asked that the reticence be removed when naming, for example, the trades in feminine. The objective is “to find the best tool that allows us to name everyone, the most effective, and to see within the alternatives, which one helps us to walk towards a inclusive language preserving the language codes “On the other hand, nor is it convenient to use the generic feminine for everything, as a feminist symbol, since “it achieves exactly the same thing that it tries to combat”

At colloquium later, in which the singer has participated María Toledo and the Mayor of Toledo Milagros TolónBoth have addressed issues such as the glass ceiling in some professions, how motherhood affects a professional career or even how they have adapted themselves to the use of non-sexist language in their speeches or on social networks.

The Hoy por Hoy program Toledo, broadcast live from the City Council, had the participation of Ana Gomez, Vice President of Education, Culture and Equality of the Diputación de Toledo; Alice Martin, Youth Deputy of the Diputación de Toledo; Fatima Guadamillas, Vice-rector for Internationalization and training at UCLM; Square Stele, Mejorada businesswoman, recently decorated after creating an organic cosmetics company. We have also been able to hear the vision of rural women offered by White Corroto, provincial president of ASAJA, and how they see equality Ana Belén Abellán, equality councilor of the Toledo City Council and White Rolled, Coordinator of inclusive CLM.

The singer has also passed through the microphones of the SER Cristina del Valle, the editor Antonio Couple -that this afternoon he will give a conference on “Cervantes and women” at the Santa Cruz Museum- and the women’s group “The Hatless”, from IES Juanelo Turriano.
