Another thing that bugs me is media and posters / often its only a part of a woman, without the head, or only the boobs, or only the legs... tearing her apart over and over.

I was thinking in my free time, instead of getting depressed I should start translating wikipedia articles about equality in Spanish- I don't even think "Gender Studies" exist as any major like the others or a legitimate field of study here.
