Os pecados, soberbia incluída, non son un asunto estritamente relixioso, senón que atinxen a cultura mesma, pola que todas as persoas estamos influídas. Sexa cal fora a crenza ou descrenza de quen os comete, xeran culpa e esta require dunha expiación, a través do perdón ou do castigo. Igualmente, a nosa cultura está construída en clave patriarcal, polo que a conceptualización dos pecados, soberbia incluída, está suxeita a unha serie de trampas, non sempre identificadas, que conducen á perpetuación da subordinación das mulleres e, xa que logo, da desigualdade.
Propoñemos neste artigo algunhas liñas para a reflexión sobre o valor da soberbia e da humildade nos homes e nas mulleres, sobre a culpa e a necesidade de castigo, ou de auto castigo, desde a perspectiva do xénero e sobre a necesidade das psicoterapias en clave feminista para superar con resiliencia os
Sins, pride included, are not an exclusive religious matter, as it concerns cultures itself, by which we, as people, are influenced. Whatever the belief or disbelief of those who commit them, sins lead to blame and this demands atonement, by means of forgiveness or punishment.
Furthermore, our culture is built upon patriarchy, consequently the conceptualization of sins, pride included, is subjected to a series of traps, not always identified, which lead to the perpetuation of the women’s subordination and, therefore, inequality.
In this article, we propose a series of guidelines for reflection on the value of pride and humility in men and women, about the guilt and the need for punishment, or self-punishment, from the gender perspective, and about the need of psychotherapies from a feminist perspective in order to overcome, with resilience, the ailments caused by sin and guilt.
