DIAZ CAMARENA, Armando Javier. Building gender awareness and consciusness about men and masculinities: an intervention. La ventana [online]. 2023, vol.7, n.57, pp.209-238. Epub 07-Feb-2023. ISSN 1405-9436. https://doi.org/10.32870/lv.v7i57.7508.
This paper reports an analysis of the building of gender awareness through a pedagogical intervention on men and also masculinities from a gender-based perspective in educational spaces in Guadalajara, Mexico. The work is resultant from the recollection of experiences of a workshop performed with four different groups composed of men and women. The outcomes show the way in which all the participants reflect and dialogue about the meanings, practices, identifications and gender relations of men. Based on the theoretical contributions from constructivism in education and gender studies on men, it is advocated the notion of “building gender awareness” as a proposal of a theoretical and political category to understand the process of reflexivity. The people participating in this process, through reflection of the personal experience and collective dialogue, were able to identify various problematic gender practices among men such as violence, risk behaviors and lack of co-responsibility at home, school, work, as well as in the exercise of sexuality and affective relationships.
