Grouping is the action and effect of group (gather in group, milling). The grouping, therefore, is the set of grouped people or things. For example: “A group of the revolutionary left claimed the attack on the bank”, “Look at that curious group of birds that flies over the lagoon”, “The group of branches on the street covered the sewer and caused a flood”.
There are several terms that, according to the context, can be used as synonyms for grouping: collectivity (a group of people gathered for a common purpose or to share a certain characteristic) and collective (social grouping whose members work together to fulfill a target) are some of them.
In general, the community is associated with a common origin (whether religious or national), while the group refers to a unit of people with the same problem. The group usually has an active political participation, with claims for rights and various requests to the authorities. In the case of groups, they can be spontaneous meetings (as objects that are brought together by the action of nature) or groups formed for a purpose (a political group).
The idea of grouping is also used to name bands or musical groups. According to Digopaul, the term indicates a group of musicians who, by composing and acting together, form a unit: “My dream is to sing in a baroque music group. ”
At the military level, on the other hand, a grouping is a homogeneous unit that is of similar importance to a regiment.
Feminism
Like so many others, feminist groups represent the fight against inequality and abuse of power. Feminism brings together ideologies and promotes cultural, economic and political actions that aim at the equal treatment of men and women, firmly opposing social hierarchies based purely on the gender of the people.
The importance of feminism is considerable; Among the changes that its militants have achieved throughout history are the right to vote (previously, exclusively for men), reproductive rights (being able to decide whether to procreate, when to do it and with whom), and the equality of women and men in the eyes of the Law.
Although inequality against the law or the impossibility of deciding what to do with one’s body seem problematic from a very remote past, these are issues that many women must face today. Similarly, working conditions are not always the same for both genders: it is common to hear that a woman receives a lower salary than a man for the same job, although it is also normal that their performance and sense of responsibility are considered older, according to their own employers.
Feminism has gone through a long and complex history, and it is far from being an expression of rebellion or absurd ambitions, as many see it from ignorance of the concept itself. There were more than a few opponents of the liberation of women who pointed out, at different times and geographical spaces, that feminist women sought to be treated as men. The reality, however, is that they want to be seen as human beings.
The fight for equality between men and women seems to have no end, given the strength and scope of patriarchy (originally, the organization of society that put men first; currently, dominance of the social order by men). The language itself presents feminine terms as exceptions or alternatives to masculine terms in a large number of cases; on the other hand, there are words such as “man”, whose first meaning in the dictionary of the RAE is “to be rational animate, male or female.”
