Discrimination and exclusion in Chile

One of the social issues in Chile  is discrimination and exclusion against immigrants. In the first place, the discrimination suffered by migrants causes social exclusion. Exclusion means that migrants have unequal access to their human rights, being marginalized from society and segregated in the ambit of  labor, education, security and health.

Secondly, exclusion determines that the migrants population lives in a circle of poverty, which is promoted by the lack of opportunities and access. This can be seen  low incomes they receive, which in many cases does not overcome the minimum wage.

Finally, this is a process not only supported by law and policies of the state, but is supported by the same population in Chile, which discriminates based on the origin of migrants (generally of the same Latin American origin) and their color of skin. This facts is important, as it is another obstacle that  migrants have to integrate into the social  system in  Chile.

In conclusion, discrimination towards migrants not only affects the social ambit of the people, but is  a process that goes  further, determining that the migrants population is excluded from the society socially and economically.

My very special person

My very special person is my dad. The first reason why my dad is my special person is because he is very loving with all his children. He is very worried about my brothers, sisters and myself, and always he finds a moments to say to that he loves us.

Secondly, my father is a person whom I admire very much, because he is a hard-working man and who always helps other people.

Finally he is a very intelligent person, who never saves his knowledge, but tries to share it with others. He knows a lot about math, he teaches us about it, so much that my brother won the math Olympics at this school.

Although sometimes he can be an angry man, he is always a cheerful person, a caring and attentive father, it is these reasons that make my father my very special person.

The best holidays I´ve ever have

The best vacation I´ve had in my life was my trip to Zapallar. The first reason that makes this trip the best of my life, is because it was a holidays with my sisters and my friends, and always had so much fun. Secondly, I fell in love with this trip so wonderful landscapes that exist there. My friend María José has his family in Zapallar, so we always had the beauty of its beaches, hills, houses, etc. I never visited this area, so I found the place much more beautiful than it described my friend. The last reason that makes this the best trip is the tranquility and hospitality of the local people, which makes the holidays more pleasant.

Certainly were some beautiful moments with my friends, parties, hiking, swimming in the beach, sun and good company. The best of all is that back this summer, will be a great trip.

Is sexism an issue in Chile?

Sexism is a phenomenon that occurs daily in Chilean society, which  promotes gender stereotypes, creating roles that must meet both mean and women,  which does not allow equality between people of opposite sex. These practices and attitudes cause serious acts of discrimination in society.

In my opinion sexism is an issue that must be adressed from the importance this has for the growth of an egalitarian society, it is sexism not only reflected in the cries of men to women in the streets, but is perceived through different behaviors, such as the devaluation of both capabilities as remuneration to woman in employment, increased demands to enter armed and law enforcement forces and even overcharged by the Isapres just because they are women.

The discrimination is a symptom of a sick society by the male chouvinism, that not only affects to women, but also ti men, teaching them from children that they must be the stronger sex, the dominant and that any behavior that is female is wrong with them.This is a clear sing that woman are seen as inferior. The gender toles that promotes the sexism it is not allowed that a royal advance should exist in the incorporation of the woman in the society, and not as a mere object, but as a human being who has the same capacities, skills, aspirations and needs that a man. On the other hand, the violation of the rights of the man in topics like the paternity between others.

From my point of view, sexism is a phenomenon that must be tackled from feministparadigm, where real progress in the struggle for the gener equalitu, where stereotypes ans roles male chouvinist dissapear is achieved.

My last vacations

Hi geofriends! Today i'm going talk about my last vacations.

This year my vacations were very special, because that I was with my family. Our vacations began to arrive  in  Viña del Mar, Where we stayed in the home of a dear friend of my family, Emilio. 

Our trip began leaving the terminal of Viña, because depiste having thea address of the department, ended up irretrievably in the city. When arrived at the department, we realizes that was very pretty and have a excellent panoramic, but is very small of my family (I tell you that thay are 7 people in my family?). That day we arrived very tired so we went not down to the beach, but at the night we celebrate eating a lot pizza and drinking beer.

The next day Emilio invited us to Villa Alemana, a park had picnic area and swimming pool. We were laughing and talking, and we ate a  delicious roast. My brother Daniel came out of the pool throughout the day. The rest of holiday, we spent from beach in beach with my family, we went to Con Con, Las Salinas and other beaches I don't remember his name. It was a great vacations!
