E 'having to be in place Sunday, February 13 the day of the national mobilization for the rights and dignity of women.
It 's time to say enough not only to this commercialization of women's bodies - amplified by the media - but also to what this alludes to the fact and to impose: the sweep - as was the case on many other fronts in terms of rights - all the achievements, hard and certainly never ended, self-determination, independence, freedom of the woman taken in recent decades. We are aware of the discrimination suffered by women at work: for example, to lower wages for equal jobs, the lack of access - for women - in positions of responsibility, etc.: today the situation has worsened with the crisis, which tells us that - with the cutting of funds in the budgets of the agencies - all the activities of care is in the hands of women, and that unemployment affects primarily women themselves. For a picture so bleak is accompanied by - mirror image - the attempt to pass off models shocking and unacceptable to commercialization, sales of women's bodies.
parliamentary answer to all this is totally inadequate. So it is absolutely essential and necessary to multiply the mobilizations in the streets next Sunday and continue in our commitment to a decisive change of direction.

The end of the Berlusconi government is a key objective for us because we live in a real democratic emergency. But we know that the end of the Berlusconi government will not automatically be the end of Berlusconi. Representative of the vulgar authoritarian neoliberalism, the videocreation Berlusconi is also a picture of a male and a common sense reaction patriarchal widespread new form of male domination, indeed authoritarian, violent, because it no longer hegemonic. A male domination which also includes women's bodies nell'onnivoro process of commodification and imprisons them in the flow of video communication.
For this reason, we conduct a molecular battle to Berlusconi and all forms of sexism by turning a critical political and cultural society, in places of work and study in family, parties, movements and institutions. We want to stop the flow of an obscene communication, which reduces the relationship between "men and women" to the seduction of tronista, or the President.
We hear today of the importance of taking a collective word for women. We are here, as women and women of all squares in Italy, not only to express our anger and our anger, but because we think it is possible a transformation of society and politics from the subjectivity of women, from a feminist movement that takes up the thread of "the longest revolution."
We wish here to express the joy of being a woman, you want to practice, to live our sexuality in an unseemly and free. To save a family member will not return, nor a bigot who says "decorum" in the privacy of public men, without grasping the inextricable link between personal and political, between male sexuality and power. For us, the moral question is, first, the critical power.
We are women who fight for job security and labor rights, going to bed late and rise early, we defend our right to live happily against all forms of oppression material, abduction income, violence Domestic violence in the Vatican, we are women who defend their rights, first to self-determination, we are studying women, who care and who do not care, we are prostitutes and missionaries, we are lesbians and mothers, we are all Egyptian, fighting for our freedom. And do not let no one, not even the nephew of Mubarak.
