INTERVIEWS

To illustrate our subject, we decided to do some interviews. These interviews are aimed to denounce a general truth in our society.

Indeed, for example we asked the exactly same questions to a young girl (8yo) and to an old man (65yo). Without surprises the differents answers are very sexist and stereotyped, even for a children.

We asked to both of them if there is some difference between boys and girls in the society. The young said that girls can’t do exactly the same things than boys like : playing football, fight, or more generally doing sport like them. These kind of answer illustrates a big problem of education which persists nowadays.

The old man said that : “girls and boys have the same rights, however in the society, each of them have their own place.”. These are the remains of an ancient very patriarchal society. For him, women are not allowed to work as much as men because they have to raise the children and take care of the house.

The confrontation of these two interviews is very interesting because we can see that whatever the age, people still have sexist ideas and stereotypes even when they are children.

We have to think about it and focus about the education of our children because they are our future : they will represent the society of tomorrow. We must eradicate all the discriminations to live in a world where everybody has his chance.
