#art, ¡Viva Picasso! (Esp/Eng)

Así que ahora están tratando de decir que Picasso era un abusador o un «machista» y que arremetía contra las mujeres. Bueno y yo digo que Picasso murió hace cincuenta años y durante su vida, ninguna de esas supuestas victimas se quejaron. Entonces a nadie le toca quejarse del gran genio del arte del S. XX. Que se dejen de tantas estupideces y que se dediquen al presente y dejen el pasado atrás, que no les pertenece. Basta ya de estar culpando a gente de otras épocas por supuestos males de esta. Además, si algunas son feministas algunos también serán machistas. Si un termino no duele el otro tampoco. Además la «violencia de genero» no existe. Ninguno de los dos géneros que ha creado Dios es violento contra el otro por naturaleza. La violencia es la violencia y existe entre todos. El termino correcto es la violencia domestica o la violencia interpersonal. Basta ya de tantas tonterías.

The «Me Too» folks in the US (and perhaps anywhere else where they exist) are now after Pablo Picasso. They claim that he abused women, that he mistreated women and that he was a macho man bad guy. Well, I say Picasso died fifty years ago and none of these women…supposed victims…ever complained about him to anyone. So, if the supposed victims did not complain, no one should be doing that now. He is and will always be the art genius of the XXth Century and he was after all a man of the XIXth Century. These man-hating feminists should stop talking nonsense about men from other times and concentrate on the problems that exist in this time, the present. The past does not pertain to them. It’s enough! Everyone should stop blaming people of other times for ills, crimes and bad things of our own times. Each epoch in history handled itself as it saw fit and they do not need any reconstruction from folk from ours. In any event, if the term «feminism» can be used and shouted from the mountain tops, so can the term «Machista», what is good for the one is good for the other. If one term does not hurt anyone the other one shouldn’t either. And there is no such thing as «gender violence,» there is domestic violence or inter-personal violence but no gender is hard-wired to be violent against the other one. Violence is violence, that is all.
