No not really. In the Spanish language the masculine form always takes precedence.

And they are also catching up on feminism. Until recently here in Spain a woman would have to prove there had been violence when claiming rape. There was a big headline-making case where some rapists went free (well until supreme court appeal): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/La_Manada_rape_case It led to the "only yes is yes" law which was already prevalent in other countries.

Even then, women hold all the soft power in Spanish-speaking countries. For example, at home, whatever the woman says, that’s what’s done. That’s what a matriarchy is.

Also, convicting people without proof, that’s not something to be proud of. (This also proves they live in a matriarchy)

> convicting people without proof

They literally videotaped it and shared the video in a group chat.

There was no question of whether the assault happened, only whether it met the bar for the more severe crime.

There was no proof of lack of consent. But I wasn’t talking about this particular case anyway.

women control the inside, men the outside.

that's just biology and it's the case the world over, not only spanish countries.
