Sorority has to do with respect, complicity, empathy and. companionship among women. In other words, it means mutual help. among themselves, which leads them to form alliances with common goals.
The word has been associated with feminism as it is intimately. involved with gender equality, with the common pursuit of goals of. ethical and political dimension. In this context, sorority involves not judging. previously another woman, attributing to her sexist stereotypes.
In short, if women themselves contribute to one. Macho thinking is almost certain that in patriarchal culture this feeling. it will be further strengthened. The brotherhood among women is present in the. feminism, because without this joining of strong foundations between women, they will not. they would be able to impose their claims.
Sorority is one of the main foundations of feminism, because without the idea of “brotherhood” among women, the movement would not succeed. gain significant proportions to enforce their claims.
The word sororidade comes from the Latin soror and its main feature. meaning “sisters”. The masculine word for sorority can be fraternity, where men join together for common goals.
In the case of fraternity, the word originated from. prefix frater, meaning “brother”.
Not all women share the same ideals, so sorority can be selective when subgroups they share. similar opinions gather around this interest-based cause. personal.
Example of selective serority: Terfs (Trans Exclusionary. Radical Feminist). This group of feminists does not recognize the transgender identity. as a woman. Therefore, they disregard another type of brotherhood besides women. from a biological point of view.
Some movements have gained momentum in recent times around. of the word sorority. A feminist platform that preaches the ideals of. sorority is “All the Women of the World”, in which its founder Giovanna. Maradei quotes the word and its meaning: “For me, sorority is having, above all, the idea that we need to support others. women to seek together the freedom we want”, she explains.
Another movement that has gained great proportions is the. “Shall we go together?”, where the women's motto is “alone my voice is just a voice. We need everyone's voice so that we have strength”. The founding journalist. of the movement Let's go together? is Babi Souza and for her, sorority too. it works as a replica of society's entrenched fact about competition. among women:
“We were raised in a society that we. taught that we should hate ourselves, that we need to have a prettier outfit than a. so-and-so and that we need to be better placed in the labor market than. Is it over there. We can't give strength to this idea of competition, that's why sorority is. So important".
These movements are the flagships of:
That is, they preach the concept that if women are allies. forces can listen to each other, advise, unite without needing competition. between themselves and much less develop macho ideas for each other, regardless of clothing, costume and other social definitions.
Many gossip sites are masters at poking celebrities. as if they dispute among themselves and often report false rumors. about fights between actresses or singers that never even existed.
An example of this is the singers Ivete Sangalo and Claudia. Leitte. The two have already publicly positioned themselves on the subject, which does not exist a. rivalry that the media projected, yet the gossip newscasts insist. in saying otherwise.
Another case involving celebrities refers to actresses Nikki. Reed and Nina Dobrev. Websites and newscasts insist on commenting on the supposed. disagreement between the two over the fact that Nina had ended their relationship. with Ian Somerhalder and the marriage between him and Nikki later.
Through an Instagram post, Nikki debunked the rumors, posting a photo next to the two actors with the caption:
“Because in the end. of the day that's what we're talking about: teaching girls what they need. hating other girls just feeds a generation of women who believe that. they must hate other women. And that's what these magazines, websites and blogs don't. understand. That is the harmful consequence of these made-up stories and us. we have a moral responsibility to correct this"
In the case of Claudia Leitte, the actress even recorded one. interview disproving his feud with Ivete Sangalo. The Cosmopolitan Magazine. published the interview and the following excerpt that said:
"I never had. brawls with anyone. Even though they attributed to me – and it sucks – this feud. with Ivete [Sangalo]. I never had any problems with any woman in the middle. artistic".
These days, it's very important that women get. ally not only in pro-feminist or similar movements. It is important that this. feeling lingers in the day to day too. This is a practice that helps women. see each other as companions, allies and friends.
They must find in each other someone they can with. tell or vent. Some attitudes help women in this case:
And don't forget: encourage other women, don't abandon them or let them feel useless, don't let them give up. That can mean a lot to a woman, and you don't even have to be a feminist to get it done.
