Ladies of Hive Contest #163 | ¿Estoy preparada para enfrentar amenazas?
Hello Ladies of Hive community.
I understand the importance of expressing feelings and concerns about the vulnerability we feel as a Latino woman to possible physical and psychological threats. Here I leave you my answer in front of risk situations for women are usual.
Do you feel prepared to face physical and psychological threats? What do you think a woman prepares for self-defense and what criteria do you think she should take into account to avoid becoming paralyzed in the face of imminent danger?
As a Latino woman, I find myself immersed in a reality where vulnerability to threats, whether physical or psychological, seems to be a constant shadow. Unfortunately, this feeling is ingrained in Latino culture.
I can't deny that I experience a palpable fear every time I go out of the house, to the point of avoiding going out alone. I always seek the company of others, even in places that are considered safe, as any strange movement or presence awakens in me a sense of threat.
I was fortunate enough to travel abroad, specifically to France, and experienced something unusual: a sense of security. Although I was assured that I was safe, that fear always persisted. I don't live in a dangerous place, fortunately, and I have chosen to limit my exposure to news and negative content.
However, I cannot help that latent fear. Despite the education I received from my parents, who raised me to be a strong and able to defend myself, I believe that anyone is exposed to threats in such a cruel world.
I think it is crucial that we women prepare in every possible way. This involves learning self-defense, identifying danger early, getting to know the people with whom we relate, and most importantly, cultivating self-esteem as a fundamental tool to avoid many adversities.
We are at a time when caution and preparedness are essential to ensure our security in a world that, unfortunately, is not always benevolent.
Finally, remember that we are strong, we are light, we are love.
💜 Thanks for being here.

Hola comunidad de Ladies of Hive.
Entiendo la importancia de expresar los sentimientos y preocupaciones sobre la vulnerabilidad que sentimos como mujer latina frente a posibles amenazas físicas y psicológicas. Aquí te dejo mi respuesta frente a las situaciones de riesgo para las mujeres son habituales. ¿Te sientes preparada para afrontar amenazas físicas y psicológicas? ¿Qué opinas de qué una mujer se prepare para la autodefensa y qué criterios crees que debería tener en cuenta para evitar quedarse paralizada ante un peligro inminente?
Como mujer latina, me veo inmersa en una realidad donde la vulnerabilidad ante amenazas, ya sean físicas o psicológicas, parece ser una sombra constante. Lamentablemente, esta sensación está arraigada en la cultura latina. No puedo negar que experimento un temor palpable cada vez que salgo fuera de casa, llegando al punto de evitar salir sola. Siempre busco la compañía de otros, incluso en lugares que se consideran seguros, ya que cualquier movimiento o presencia extraña despierta en mí la sensación de amenaza.
Tuve la fortuna de viajar al extranjero, específicamente a Francia, y experimenté algo inusual: la sensación de seguridad. Aunque me aseguraban que estaba a salvo, siempre persistía ese temor. No vivo en un lugar peligroso, afortunadamente, y he optado por limitar mi exposición a noticias y contenido negativo. Sin embargo, no puedo evitar ese miedo latente. A pesar de la educación que recibí de mis padres, quienes me criaron para ser una mujer fuerte y capaz de defenderme, creo que cualquier persona está expuesta a amenazas en un mundo tan cruel.
Considero crucial que las mujeres nos preparemos de todas las maneras posibles. Esto implica aprender defensa personal, identificar el peligro tempranamente, conocer a fondo a las personas con las que nos relacionamos y, lo más importante, cultivar el amor propio como una herramienta fundamental para evitar muchas adversidades. Estamos en un momento en el que la precaución y la preparación son esenciales para garantizar nuestra seguridad en un mundo que, lamentablemente, no siempre es benevolente.
Ya para finalizar, recuerda que somos fuertes, somos luz, somos amor.
💜 Gracias por estar aquí.

He leído que muchos latinos cuando están en países más seguros pasan por esa situación de estar siempre alertas al peligro aún cuando todo está a salvo, es un poco triste darse cuenta como el contexto ha hecho que normalicemos el peligro. Abrazos 🤗
