ABSTRACT
Nowadays, gender issues have
being discussed with an increasing scientific rigor. Academic productions that
contest the dualistic concept man (aggressor) and victim (woman) have enabled a
better understanding of the trivialization of violence against women. Probably, the
influences of generational transmission of models of domination and submission shape this
violence through the educative process that embraces standards of conduct and by the establishment of constitutive rules of the psyche in terms of
identity bonds that label attitudes, actions, and choices. Then, the objective is to demonstrate, making use of the
literature in the field, the male perpetuation though educative process by
means of the acquisition and repetition of information regarding gender that
are transmitted, since childhood, through mother-daughter relationship. The
female behavior, practiced by the thoughtless repetition and kept by the
strength of ancestral memory many times build a submission bond that is
transmitted from mother to daughter, perpetuing the violence against women. The
claimed violence, between partners and spouses,
highlights hierarchical factors based on the dichotomy
public space, aimed at man, and private place, aimed at woman, being a vector
that perpetrates the male superiority and the female submission. The condition of
female subalternity also reflects the transmission of stereotypes attributed to
the woman who identifies herself with a past shaped by patriarchal conceptions,
and does not discerne whether
their conceptions result from personal experiences or if they are identity
traits that resulted from a memory.
