In Albania, during the last few years, the decrease in the number of marriages has been observed every year. Experts believe that young people today postpone the age of marriage conditioned by several factors, related to career, professional achievements, work and financial income.
Discussing this topic, in the “Let me speak” studio, another issue was raised as a problem: that of the sexualization of men and women.
The former resident of Big Brother VIP 2, Kristi Dragot said that unlike women, male sexualization cannot be measured, it is very difficult to see.
At this moment, economics pedagogue Suzana Guxholli intervened, and then journalist and activist Zhaklina Lekatari, who clashed their opinions on the issue.
Excerpts from the conversation:
Kristi Dragot: Male sexualization cannot be measured, it is very difficult to see. And it’s not talked about because it’s something we’ve acquired over time.
The sexualization of women is understood directly. It is a word, it is a touch, it is violence, a very visible thing. While we are sexualized every day, the Albanian society… we are hearing scary things.
Zhaklina Lekatari: The sexualization of men in our society, first of all, has not become a phenomenon, it has not become a statistic. Albanian men are not killed with an ax, they are not raped, they do not go out through portals, no one kills you with a knife. In world societies it is different. Here men kill women… All lives matter.
Suzana Guxholli: In spite of everything, in a show like this or others, jokes can be made and some things should not be taken seriously…
Zhaklina Lekatari: I think that a joke can be made with those people who you have confidence in and it is certain that they will expect your joke, they will understand it. If you’re going to joke with the audience, you should address the camera, not me. If you don’t trust me, you should behave like in the case of Arbana and Ed, who, since they didn’t have much trust in me, didn’t invite me to the wedding. Don’t invite me to the wedding and don’t make jokes when you know the other person, in this case me, won’t react very well.
