In this work, the author proposes a series of works analyzing different topics related to gender violence. In its first part, the work takes us back to the prehistory of the system of oppression based on gender roles and makes a reading of its development up to the present day. The second part makes a historical analysis of the emergence of patriarchy, a system of oppression of women so well known today. The third part of the work is a reflection on the relationship that existed between sterile women and the patriarchal system that enshrined compulsory motherhood. Finally, the last part is an analysis of the role played by awareness and recognition in the development and rupture of relationships that give rise to gender violence. Although it is true that the author maintains the same line of analysis throughout the work, each part has a particular style and its own method when addressing its corresponding problem, giving the work a refreshing heterogeneity that, far from undermining its rigor, provides a broader and more comprehensive approach.
