Abstract
ALZATE-TORRES, Diana Marcela. From tension in the exercise of gender roles to marital violence as a relational pattern. Rev. eleuthera [online]. 2020, vol.22, n.2, pp.266-285. Epub June 08, 2021. ISSN 2011-4532. https://doi.org/10.17151/eleu.2020.22.2.16.
Objective:
This article presents the results of a research on marital violence carried out with couples from the city of Manizales, with the purpose of analyzing the connections between tensions generated in the exercise of gender roles and the emergence of violence in the relationship.
Methodology:
The qualitative perspective from the hermeneutical approach was used.
Results:
It is recognized that gender stereotypes are central to the formation of the couple, in the emergence of frictions, disagreements and conflicts produced from the non-correspondence (or unsatisfactory correspondence) between the expectations regarding the role of gender and the other, and the actual exercise of these.
Conclusion:
The emergence of violence is generated as a means of resolution or as a way of saying what cannot be expressed in other ways as a strategy for the reorganization of control among other possible reasons for breaking into this interaction.
Keywords : marital violence; expectations and gender roles; gender stereotypes; relational pattern.
