Among Divisions: Gender and Spatiality
Main Article Content
Abstract
Being born with sexual anatomical features is not a neutral fact given that these are culturally assigned and establish gender identities with rules, commands, beliefs, activities, and jobs that respond to the way through which each society symbolizes bodies. At the same time, social spaces, located in specific places, are assigned to each gender identity; determined by historical, material, and symbolic boundaries that correspond to a social and hierarchical order. In this lies the importance of architectural urban analysis as it is a space that reproduces the social structure of domination through the design and construction of spaces such as housing.
