“Violence against women no longer exists”, is what is sometimes heard when the issue of gender violence comes up. Against this background, just one day after the International Women’s Day, Arcángel, a reggaeton singer, caused controversy by saying that while women ask for respect, they spend their time teaching “el cul…”. That is to say, the singer who has songs with misogynistic lyrics tried to justify the attacks on women.
It was through his Instagram stories, where Arcángel expressed his position on women demanding respect and an end to violence.
You want to be respected as a woman, but you keep learning the c … on social networks for likes “, Archangel wrote.
As if that wasn’t enough, the reggaeton artist said that the truths of women – according to his macho opinion – are the ones who act like ladies.
“Women who behave, distinguish themselves and are classified as ladies”, Archangel added.
Likewise, he explained that women who “prostitute” themselves in the networks do not deserve respect:
“There are women who unfortunately use their social networks to prostitute themselves, sometimes they demand a certain respect from men … if you don’t act like a lady, you don’t deserve it”he added in his story.
Before this macho and misogynistic attitude in which they try to justify violence against women, the wave of criticism reached their networks and set it in a trend. Even the singer Annita threw herself at him:
“This is me showing my ass on my instagram. Now a special question themed for Women’s Day yesterday … you can use (Archangel) women in your videos and post explicit texts to get views, but at the same time to say that women who show their own cu … in their social networks don’t deserve respect? I’m confused “, Annitta replied.
And last but not least, criticized the use of women in music videos and stressed that they all deserve respect
“They deserve respect with or without whom … from the outside. Whether on your Instagram or in music videos of men who believe there must be women of one type to exploit them in what suits them, and women. of a different type to be yours. Peace, love and coherence “, finished.
