Another (Feminine) View of Italy and The World

IT SEEMS THAT IT IS PRECISELY IN CALABRIA THAT WOMEN ARE EXPERIENCING A MOMENT OF GREATER AWARENESS THAN USUAL. AN AWARENESS THAT IS STILL MATURING AND HAS NOT FOUND ITS DEFINITIVE PLACE. THE SUPPORT OF TENACIOUS AND AWARE WOMEN BECOMES FUNDAMENTAL.

WE ANALYSE WHAT IS HAPPENING AND READ ‘HISTORICAL’ LINKS AND CONNECTIONS, WE LOOK AT PAST PATHS AND TURN OUR GAZE TO THE FUTURE, DIALOGUING ABOVE ALL WITH THE NEW GENERATIONS, HELPING THEM TO ACQUIRE AWARENESS, THE AWARENESS THAT COMES FROM BEING ABLE TO ASSIMILATE AND MANAGE AS MUCH INFORMATION AS POSSIBLE.

NOT AN EASY TASK, BUT NOT IMPOSSIBLE EITHER. ‘AWARENESS' BECAUSE IN OUR EXPERIENCE IT IS FROM THE AWARENESS OF ONE'S OWN IDENTITY AND THE POSITIONING OF ONE'S OWN IMAGE IN SOCIETY THAT A HUMAN BEING CAN FIND HIS “VISION”, THAT IS, THE TRANSLATION OF HIS OWN IMAGE INTO THE WORLD. ONCE ONE HAS IMAGINED ONESELF IN THE WORLD, ONE MUST THEN WORK ON REALISING ONE'S VISION OF ONESELF AS ONE HAS CONCEIVED OF BEING. PERHAPS THIS IS THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS, THE FREE EXPRESSION OF ONESELF. HOWEVER, SOCIETY DOES NOT ALWAYS ALLOW YOU TO FULLY REALISE YOURSELF, IF YOU ARE A WOMAN OR IF YOU BELONG TO A ‘DIFFERENT’ CATEGORY IT BECOMES MORE DIFFICULT. FOR THIS REASON THE IDEA OF FÌMMINA TV WAS BORN, THE AIMS ARE MANY, COHESION AMONG CALABRIAN WOMEN, THE LOCAL REFERENCE TO A COMMON VISION, THE BATTLE AGAINST CULTURAL DISCRIMINATIONS BUT, FIRST OF ALL, IT IS TO THE GIRLS THAT WE ARE THINKING, TO THE YOUNG WOMEN BOMBARDED BY CULTURAL STIMULI THAT ARE VERY OFTEN WRONG, FEW TIMES CORRECT, IT IS TO THE DETERMINATION OF SELF-AWARENESS THAT WE ARE TRYING TO WORK WITH THE GROUP OF JOURNALISTS WHO ARE PART OF THE FÌMMINA TV TEAM. GIRLS, 95 PER CENT OF US UNDER 40, WHO SINCE TAKING THEIR FIRST STEPS IN SOCIETY HAVE IMMEDIATELY ESTABLISHED THEMSELVES AS TENACIOUS AND STRONG PEOPLE, WITH CLEAR IDEAS AND ALWAYS EVOLVING. WE WOULD LIKE TO THINK THAT THE YOUNG WOMAN IN FRONT OF THE TELEVISION WILL BEGIN TO USE A CRITICAL SENSE OF EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENS AROUND HER, THANKS ALSO TO THE STIMULI THAT WE WILL OFFER HER. ‘FÌMMINA’ IS NOT A COINCIDENCE, ‘FEMALE’ IS A TERM THAT IS SLOWLY TURNING INTO A DEROGATORY ALMOST, OR AT ANY RATE INTO A WORD COMBINED WITH THE CONCEPT THAT COMMODIFIES WOMEN, RE-APPROPRIATING THE TERM THAT INDICATES ABOVE ALL THE GENDER IS THE FIRST STEP TOWARDS A CULTURAL REDEFINITION OF THE WORD THAT ONLY WE CAN CORRECTLY INDICATE. FÌMMINA, THEN BECAUSE THE DIALECT VERSION ENCAPSULATES ALL THE CHARACTERISTICS OF THE CALABRIAN WOMAN, STRONG, STUBBORN, TOUGH AND DETERMINED.

WE ALSO DISPEL THE MYTH OF STEREOTYPES ASSOCIATED WITH WOMEN OF LITTLE CHARACTER OR ‘OBJECT WOMEN’. HAVING AN INTEREST IN STYLE, IN HEDONISM, IN ITS MOST OPEN MEANING, DOES NOT MEAN BEING DEVOTED TO VACUITY, BUT ALSO NURTURING A PART OF THE HUMAN PROPENSITY FOR ART, SELF-CARE, LIFESTYLE....SO THAT IT DOES NOT BECOME THE SOLE REASON FOR EXISTENCE!
