Resumen
LINARES BRAVO, Bárbara Carolina; NAZAR BEUTELSPACHER, Austreberta y ZAPATA MARTELO, Emma. Neither mother nor wife. Indigenous women from Amatenango del Valle, Chiapas, Mexico. Rev. interdiscip. estud. género Col. Méx. [online]. 2019, vol.5, e389. Epub 15-Feb-2020. ISSN 2395-9185. https://doi.org/10.24201/reg.v5i0.389.
This study explores, from twenty-four in-depth interviews, the conditions and motivations of indigenous women from Amatenango del Valle who, voluntarily or circumstantially, remain without children throughout their reproductive life. Partner violence, present in multiple forms, is one of the main reasons which interviewed women express for conjugal union rejection. The refusal often comes with motherhood rejection too. Finally, it was found that obtaining monetarized resources opens possibilities towards autonomy to choose being a mother, a wife, or not to, and to draw a life Project, from the own objective and subjective conditions.
