Violenza contro le donne nella Chiesa

Quello della violenza contro le donne e le ragazze è un tema universale. La Chiesa cattolica, con la sua struttura patriarcale e hierarchica, non fa eccezione.

​

Nonostante i ripetuti appelli e le numerose testimonianze durante il Sinodo di donne che hanno sofferto violenza, nella versione finale della relazione sinodale non è stata fatta alcuna menzione della violenza contro le donne.

Questo deliberato fallimento del Sinodo ha origine in una cultura di sessismo, machismo e narcisismo di preti, vescovi e parrocchiani maschi. La priorità dei loro interessi e del loro potere è fondamentale.

​

Il CWC ritiene quindi importante richiamare l'attenzione sulla violenza contro le donne nella Chiesa e illustrare come questa violenza si perpetui nella società attraverso stereotipi di genere e un'antropologia binaria.

 

In particolare, il clero cattolico ha un ruolo importante nella politica e nel processo decisionale, che troppo spesso porta a trascurare o bloccare le tutele legali per le donne, compreso il diritto all'autodeterminazione sessuale, alla libertà riproduttiva e all'autonomia. Il dominio e il controllo degli uomini sulle donne e sui loro corpi viene rafforzato.

 

Per questo motivo la CWC e numerose organizzazioni affiliate partecipano anche quest'anno alla campagna globale delle Nazioni Unite 16 Giorni contro la violenza sulle donne e le ragazze.

Killing is the last of a long list of violence that women suffer from Ciudad Juarez to New York, from Kabul to Paris. We, the Catholic women, joined the 25N demonstrations all over the world to ask (praying and acting) for a world without violence against women.
