    • 2015 September 15, “Mujeres de hoy”, in El País[1]:
      La desgracia es que por mujer como las de antes no se entiende a las valientes y corajudas que se rebelaron contra la dictadura varonil, los paternalismos, el celo sometedor, la violencia y los prejuicios sociales y religiosos, sino que se pretende elogiar la resignación, la sumisión y la autoanulación.
      The misfortune is that by women like those of before, we do not understand the brave and courageous women who rebelled against the male dictatorship, paternalism, subjugating zeal, violence and social and religious prejudices, but rather they are intended to praise resignation, submission and self-annulment.
