An attack in Schwäbisch Hall raises questions about safety and diversity for queer people as societal discussions about gender equality gain momentum.

SENSATION: Women under pressure – sexism is increasing!

In a breathtaking and alarming discussion that shakes the foundations of gender equality, the renowned actress Ursina Lardi speaks bitterly in a theater podcast about the brutal and masculine willingness to change of the political elite in Germany. [nachtkritik.de] reports that in this explosive climate, in which men like Donald Trump serve as role models, the achievements of feminists are also coming under massive attack. This development is not only alarming, but sends a chill down society's spine!

The brilliant author Jagoda Marinic states with startling clarity that Trump's macho behavior is not simply an American phenomenon: it runs like a common thread through the mindsets of many men in this country. The shocking attack on two actors in Schwäbisch Hall is a clear warning sign that queer people no longer feel safe - an absolutely intolerable situation!

Feminist achievements in danger?

The impending threat to feminist achievements is exacerbated by the attacks on the SPD candidate Frauke Brosius-Gersdorf. These attacks are not only shocking, but suggest a disturbing climate of fear in which women's voices may be systematically suppressed. The Hans Böckler Foundation warns that equality between women and men is far from being achieved in Germany, and the gender pay gap shows a worrying inequality that continues to this day.

Women earn an incredible 18% less on average in 2020 than their male colleagues - a grotesque reality that is reflected in brutality in the current times!

Psychological effects of sexism

Men's sexism not only has immediate effects, but also profound mental effects on women. Vincent Immanuel Mr reveals frightening statistics: a third of all men are considered hardcore sexists, while the majority are unconscious sexists who simply do not understand the serious consequences of their self-proclaimed jokes on women. This is not only tragic, but a colossal failure of society!

The women who bear the brunt of childcare often find themselves up against the walls of societal pressure. What is shocking is the fact that only 11% of couples have a female main breadwinner in the household!

A call for change!

Given these frightening facts, Herr calls on men to take on a role that goes beyond what men have ever thought appropriate. It's time to take responsibility and speak to women about their experiences. It's a SENSATION that so many men still don't understand reality!

At a time when diversity and respect against anti-queer violence are of enormous importance, the Schwäbisch Hall Freilichtspiele emphasize the importance of a strong community that stands up for everyone. Lardi calls for a new perspective and reminds us that differentiated thoughts and tender gestures are essential in our hardened society.

The message is clear: the battle for equality and justice is far from won, and the grim reality of the above statistics must be understood as a succinct call for immediate change.

The time for a change has come! Let’s demand equality – for a future we all deserve!
