What do they say from Now That They See Us
The general director of the Observatory, Raquel Vivancostates that “femicides are the most extreme expression of sexist violence” and describes the figure as “a political term” installed “to give a name to murders committed against women because of their gender status.”
Vivanco evaluates that “it will not be easy for them to eliminate this aggravating circumstance from the Penal Code because they do not have the necessary correlation of forces within Congress“. In addition, he added that with this measure they want to take the country “a century back in terms of human rights” but the organization affirms that they have confidence in the progress made. Finally, he concludes: “We are not going to allow them to destroy conquests “historical achievements in terms of recognition of Human Rights, Women’s Rights and the LGBTIQ+ community”.
The figure of Femicide, outside the Argentine Penal Code
“Because this administration defends equality before the Law enshrined in our National Constitution. No life is worth more than another. As President Javier Milei said in Davos, “Feminism is a distortion of the concept of equality that only seeks privileges by pitting one half of the population against the other,” the minister noted in his message.
And he continued: “For years they have used women to fill their pockets and undermine men. Regardless of our sex, we are all equal before the law and deserve the same protection and respect.”
The Government is working on a project that eliminates the criminal figure of femicide
After President Javier Milei pointed out in the Davos Forum to policies against gender violence and attacked the criminal figure of femicide, the Government made public that it was working in a project of “equality before the law”, aimed at reversing all the laws that in recent decades included protection measures.
“Radical feminism is a distortion of the concept of equality”Milei said in Davos. He added: “We even reached the point of normalizing that in many supposedly civilized countries if one kills a woman it is called femicide, and that carries a more serious penalty than if one kills a man just because of the sex of the victim. Legalizing, in fact, that a woman’s life is worth more than a man’s.”
