Who’s afraid from the gender online? 

 

Speakers: Jovana Ananievska, HERA; Maja Mrmova – volunteer at HERA; Biljana Ginova – LezFem; Natasha Boshkova – Coalition „Sexual and reproductive rights of the marginalized groups”

Moderator: Ana Pop Stefanija - HERA

 

Why is it so terrifying to talk about sexual rights and reproductive health?

To talk about gender inequality and other “female” questions? Why men think that they should make the decisions about women’s rights instead of the women themselves? Why a picture of two men holding hands is considered “disturbing”, and if it’s two girls – not at all? Why every one of these subjects raises a storm of comments online? Through a presentation about their experience on events and campaigns about gender, sexual and reproductive health and activism, the speakers will try to provide an answer for the question: What is it that causes this storm of online comments every time when someone mentions sexual and reproductive health? Why these subjects are still controversial, what is it that mostly causes
the reaction, which groups of people leave comments, what are the most frequent comments, what are the characteristics of the hate speech that is inevitably present?
