Den där om Ejército Zapatista de Liberación Nacional och kvinnorna

You, woman of the city. They lied to us. Harassment and contempt are still the only future which the one from above offers. You carry a thousand burdens, and you give birth to a thousand rebellions. They harass you and despise you when you are a girl, when you are an adolescent, when you are a young woman, when you are an adult, when you are mature, when you are an old woman. Between harassment and contempt, they want to assign you the role of ornament, and they build the corner for you which they try to make you inhabit. They harass and despise you at home, in school, in the metro or on the bus, in the street, at work, at play, during your free time, in the shop. They want you to be valued for what you look like, and not for what you are. Power then takes the face of father, brother, sweetheart, friend, lover, husband, son, work companion, superior or subordinate.
