BERMUDEZ-URBINA, Flor Marina. "Physical Punishment is no Longer a Habit for Teachers Here": Violent Expressions Towards Women at Chiapas University of Science and Arts. Península [online]. 2014, vol.9, n.2, pp.15-40. ISSN 1870-5766.

This article presents a characterization of the types of violence toward women in a public state university in the southeast of Mexico. After a review of 97 written stories from young university students we have found that socialization patterns and gender stereotypes have an impact on the violence that is suffered by women. In this study we conclude that male teachers appear, on a big proportion and in many narrations, as the perpetrators of sexual and psychological violence. We also found a significant number of violent cases, most of them associated with sexual and academic harassment, done by male students towards women. In a minor proportion, we registered episodes of psychological and physical violence among male students. In a minor proportion, we registered episodes of psychological and physical violence among male students; which might be explained as part of the reinforcement patterns of masculinity that are present in the models of gender socialization among families and Chiapas rural communities.
