Pensar o gênero: diálogos com o Serviço Social

Abstract

Resumo O artigo apresenta as três abordagens sobre gênero mais comuns nas pesquisas no campo do Serviço Social brasileiro. São elas: o marxismo, as relações sociais de sexo e a interseccionalidade. Enquanto as duas primeiras são mais recorrentes, a última começa a adentrar as produções da área. O texto discute cada uma, mostra suas potencialidades e limites e estabelece algumas conexões entre elas. Por fim, aponta para lacunas presentes nas investigações sobre gênero no Serviço Social.

Social technology to prevent intimate partner violence: the VID@ Group in actions with men

“…During the group mediation process, the work team sought to value the significant experiences brought by the subjects, encouraging them to re-read their own world (8) . There was also an interest in promoting understanding about the gender constructions implied in the formation of the subjects, since they present themselves as cultural forms and meanings which give meaning to life, in addition to promoting characteristics considered socially as feminine and masculine (11) . In this sense, addressing themes which bring out the social role of the family as a shaper of individual identity is important because it favors reflection and reframing of violent behavior in family and intimate partner relations (5,6) .…”

“…The main mentioned legacy refers to a division in roles between men and women, strongly rooted in the patriarchal model, socially taught and reproduced in their homes. This perspective is discussed by a gender theorist when they point out that men and women are built by historical, cultural and social constraints, permeated by power relations, making the feminine figure remain in a condition of subordination (11) , favoring the practice of violence in marital relations. National research adds that this social construction reinforces the non-recognition of violent situations (1) , which are therefore understood as natural.…”

“…From this perspective, we tried to make life habits become a reflection object by the men, constituting an essential condition for critical understanding of their own practice and consequent change in behavior (8) . The gender issues which permeate these constructions are closely articulated with language and discourse, forming a symbolic universe which enables one to socially analyze what is seen in the bodies (11) . This is mainly because this space allows us to go deeper into the issue of violence, since it is based on PNAISH.…”

“…In the discussion, we seek to uncover gender inequality, especially in the public world, which ends up privileging men. The references used to deal with gender issues were structured in the postulates proposed by references in the area (7,(11)(12) .…”

Profile of Renal Transplant Patients Associated with Social Security or Continuous Cash Benefit and Labor Status

“…21 Such identification is relevant, since the gender category impacts on the life of the subject, since it actively conditions their insertion and participation in life in society. 22 It is noteworthy that the adult population transplanted in 2021 (n = 66, 100%) by the kidney transplant unit was mostly male (n = 40, 66.7%), minimum age was 18 and maximum 66, and mean age was 46.6 years, according to the discussions. The finding of this study regarding the predominance of females (n = 13, 65%) may be associated with sample limitation, whose probable justification is the occurrence of the study in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, with drastic reduction of on-site assistance in the specialties outpatient clinic of the base hospital.…”
