(Ka statue of the pharaoh Awibre Hor by Jon Bodsworth/Copyrighted free use)

Siempre me ha gustado la historia y especialmente la historia del antiguo Egipto y he visto muchas estatuas, y no me acuerdo haberle visto ojos de cristal a ninguna. Ahora resulta que todas tienen ojos de cristal…

I have always liked history, especially ancient history, like the history of ancient Egypt and I have seen many statues and I don’t recall any of them having glass eyes. Now, it seems they all do…

Creo que aunque no muy conocida por estos Deus lares hay que darla a conocer…

I believe that although she is not too well known in these lands she should be recognised…

Bueno, pasaron muchas cosas extraordinarias ese año pero para mi la más importante fue que John Lennon y Paul McCartney se conocieron y eso hizo posible la creación de The Beatles…

A lot of great things happened in 1957 but for me the most important one was the meeting between John and Paul that led to the eventual creation of The Beatles…

(Art Digital «Self-Portrait»/Francisco Bravo Cabrera/Derechos Reservados/All Rights Reserved)

1- Convirtiéndonos en la persona mas racional y mas precisa, funcionalista y analítica, os pregunto entonces, ¿De qué nos sirve el arte?

2- ¿Se puede ser artista y no saber ni pintar ni dibujar?

3- El arte, ¿Subjetivo u objetivo?

+++

1- Turning ourselves into the most rational, precise, functionalist and analytical person, I ask you, what is art good for?

2- Can one be an artist and not know how to paint or draw?

3- Is art subjective or objective?

#travel, #video, I’m Suggesting Xàtiva, Spain

It’s in the mountains and there’s a spectacular castle way up there… This is a great place for autumn or spring, I am not too sure about winter but I am sure that summer is not the time to climb the mountains and hills of beautiful Xàtiva in the Valencian Community, Spain…

#opinion, Domestic Violence vs Gender Violence… The Debate of the Magical Rulers

(Original Digital Art by Francisco Bravo Cabrera/All Rights Reserved)

«There is no such thing as ‘gender violence’ as genders, being those male and female, are identical in their display of violence or non-violence. Violence perpetrated upon a spouse or other family member is and has always been denominated as ‘domestic violence’ and nothing else.»

(Bodo Vespaciano)

In police circles, in criminal law and in society the term has always been DOMESTIC VIOLENCE and it has always been defined as violence perpetrated by someone known to the victim, regardless of his/her relationship to the victim. Brother on brother, Mother on children, spouse on spouse, even friends and neighbours would fall into the definition of DOMESTIC VIOLENCE. Domestic violence is what the name describes. I spent thirty years dealing with this during my time in the Miami-Dade Police Department.

But now these anti-male ultra-feminists, as well as the politicians capitalising on it, are intent on demasculinising boys and proposing instead the agenda of the new and modern feminist, as well as their new speech. This agenda has nothing to do with real feminism. Gender violence is a discriminating, man-hating term. With this they imply that «something» in the male gender makes them violent towards women! Incredible! And what is worse, in some countries, not just here in the European Union, they have actually made laws using the term gender violence!

The reality is that all humans (male and female, and as far as I know there are only two genders) are prone to violence. That is why now in so many countries men and women go to war as combatant soldiers. When I served in the US Army women served alongside but they were classified as non-combatants. So they have improved their status. There is no validity, at least not in Biology, to this idea that the male gender is prone to violence towards the female gender. Many more mothers murder their children than do fathers.

So get over it! Enough with this stupid idea of political correctness! Things should be correct and peace should reign supreme among men (and men means women too) and violence should end, now! The only one in charge is God, no doubt about it and He made us all equal.
