The exhaustion faced by academics served as the starting point for this special issue--edited, written, and reviewed exclusively by cis and trans women. We understand exhaustion as a consequence of ...historical and daily battles for gender equality, aggravated by the burden of reproductive work. Thus, even when exhausted, we accepted this challenge out of the conviction of the political role necessary to open spaces in the face of a masculine logic of science production. This editorial was structured based on recognizing the importance of producing, identifying, and living with the challenges necessary to disrupt oppression. These challenges come in the form of (1) bringing together female editors, authors, and reviewers from different regions, academic backgrounds, and diverse representations; (2) time, which revealed itself as an instrument of domination and gender violence; (3) the operationalization of the contradiction in producing an edition exclusively for women, considering the male logic of practicing science. This edition should be read as a pedagogical instrument to visualize the challenges experienced, and it is a call for collective responsibility in the fight to create space in everyday life, specifically in the academic field. Finally, if we are to combat injustices, we must provoke daily discomfort, and this edition set out to do just that. Keywords: gender equality; women; reproductive work; contemporaneity. A exaustao enfrentada por academicas serviu como ponto de partida para esta edicao especial--editada, escrita e revisada exclusivamente por mulheres cis e trans. Entendemos a exaustao como consequencia das batalhas historicas e cotidianas pela igualdade de genero, agravada pelo onus do trabalho reprodutivo. Assim, mesmo exaustas, aceitamos este desafio pela conviccao do papel politico necessario para abrir frestas frente a uma logica masculina de producao da ciencia. Este editorial foi estruturado a partir do reconhecimento da importancia de se produzir, identificar e conviver com incomodos necessarios para desestruturarmos opressoes. Foram eles: (i) o desafio de reunir editoras, autoras, pareceristas mulheres de diferentes regionalidades, trajetorias academicas e representatividade; (ii) o tempo, que se revelou como um instrumento de dominacao e de violencia de genero; (iii) a operacionalizacao da contradicao em se produzir uma edicao so de mulheres considerando a logica masculina de se fazer ciencia. Temos a conviccao de que esta edicao deva ser lida como um instrumento pedagogico de visibilizacao dos desafios vividos, e mais, trata-se de uma convocacao para a responsabilidade coletiva na luta pela abertura de novas frestas na vida cotidiana e especificamente no campo academico. Por fim, se e necessario combater injusticas, se torna iminente provocarmos incomodos cotidianos, e foi isso a que essa edicao se propos. Palavras-chave: igualdade de genero; mulheres; trabalho reprodutivo; contemporaneidade.

This volume was born out of the encounter between academia and the professional environment, in order to contribute, from different points of view and from a diachronic perspective, to the issue of ...gender equality in the legal profession. In light of the differences still existing, the contributions address some of the main issues related to women’s access to the advocacy and the judiciary, from historical and current points of view, within the broader framework of the implementation of the constitutional principle of equality. It aims at promoting a culture of equality, i.e. a culture capable of moving not only on the level of homogeneity, but also on the level of diversity, enhancing the characteristics of each person-professional, in a pluralistic and inclusive perspective.
La desigualdad y la violencia de género son graves problemas que afectan a todas las culturas, cuyo origen se encuentra, entre otros, en la socialización diferencial y en las prácticas relacionales ...androcéntricas instauradas a través de distintos mecanismos. El presente estudio, de corte transversal y diseño ex-post-facto, pretende conocer la asociación entre los mitos del amor romántico y las actitudes hacia la igualdad en una muestra de 1,840 adolescentes de Educación Secundaria Obligatoria de Castilla-La Mancha. Los resultados reportan que los perfiles más favorables hacia la desigualdad de género aceptan en mayor medida los mitos del amor romántico. Además, las actitudes menos favorables hacia la coeducación en el plano relacional permiten explicar tanto la idealización del amor romántico como la vinculación amor-maltrato. Finalmente, se hallaron diferencias entre hombres y mujeres de perfil sexista en la mayor aceptación de la dimensión vinculación amor-maltrato. En conclusión, es fundamental incorporar el enfoque coeducativo en las aulas con el fin de eliminar la desigualdad y la asimilación del ideario del amor romántico, el cual se sustenta en formas relacionales basadas en la dependencia y genera asimetrías en las relaciones afectivas.
Summary
This systematic review sought to evaluate the impact of gender equality on the health of both women and men in high-income countries. A range of health outcomes arose across the 48 studies ...included. Gender equality was measured in various ways, including employment characteristics, political representation, access to services, and with standard indicators (such as the Global Gender Gap Index and the Gender Empowerment Measure). The effects of gender equality varied depending on the health outcome examined, and the context in which gender equality was examined (i.e. employment or domestic domain). Overall, evidence suggests that greater gender equality has a mostly positive effect on the health of males and females. We found utility in the convergence model, which postulates that gender equality will be associated with a convergence in the health outcomes of men and women, but unless there is encouragement and support for men to assume more non-traditional roles, further health gains will be stymied.
