It looks like if we are stepping in the past.
Many times I had discussions about the role of the women in the Occidental and Oriental culture, I was trying to explain to some friends which is the role of the woman in the Muslim society, following my knowledges and my small experience of that world, and any time i was making a comparative with what we consider, or many consider, a good achievement of the Occident, it means the dress code and behaving code.
Explaining that for me the possibility of going in the street, or in Television, almost “naked” is not a step forward in the woman freedom but a step back in the stereotype of the female body as sexual object I,often, passed as a “reactionary”.
Now it looks as my opinion is not just mine, i found an article and from there a video and,following, a lot of articles and blogs talking about the role of the women in our modern society.
It looks like if the Italian society is allowing herself to push back the woman in a role of eternal beauty-sex toys.
The video “Il corpo delle donne” ("The women bodies"-english version-, by Lorella Zanardo), explains in a simple way how now the woman is pushed to use the body, before the brain, to achieve an aim, to mantein a position and work in some fields,as the TV's.
The idea of becoming old seems to be something unnatural, instead of a normal evolution process that affect all the human being in the world.
The faces, says the journalist, are not anymore the mirror of their life but just masks to cover a personality, the time passing and the “defects”.
The woman became so a “frame”, a “table's leg”, or just a mute presence in a TV transmission.
I don't know where is the mistake,or which is the social origin and explanation of these behaviors...what i can say is how I'm feeling in seeing that. I feel bad, and sorry because i can see from one side the participation of the women,many women, in this “way to be”. Women focalised on the body, on the beauty instead of the development of the brain and the culture.
In an old book (and movie) a mother said to her daughter I can understand that you want to be beautiful but think also that your beauty will pass with the time,your mind will remain (Small Women, by L.M. Alcott).It seems that we, the women, forget that the time pass and bring effect and, even more, we are not just for what we can appear.
For the other side i see a “structure” that build this idea of female beauty, i don't know if it is the TV and the business starting the process and the people following or if the “structure” is just an answer to people's demand. Anyway the result is a generation of young girls living for became a Velina (a kind of showgirl with a mute role in the TV).
