After the opening of the exhibition, the agent of the City of Jumilla Equality, Paquita Ruiz, offered a lecture entitled "Gender, Culture and Immigration", in which he made a wide sweep about the differences between the concepts of gender and sex, and social construction, sometimes wrong, which makes this perception.
As explained Paquita Ruiz, gender divisions is both in the public and private, on men and women exercising social pressure if the person tries to untie the attributes commonly associated with their gender.
Thus the family, school, peer groups, the media or the language itself, are generating a separation of roles that ultimately end up pigeonhole people according to their gender without regard to their individual qualities.
