00:00It was perhaps the first moment in my life where I truly felt that I was
00:05This concept of being from another age, that I was the other one, that I didn't fit in,
00:10that I was different, that I didn't have the same resources, the same money, the same language
00:16and that in a way one was seen as less, as the immigrant, the Latina
00:22And that was very difficult, it was very difficult for me as a child.
00:25But it was also very difficult for my mom as a woman and as a mother.
00:29My mom worked as a housekeeper in hotels, as a domestic worker, as a cashier
00:37like in factory jobs and worked all the time
00:40And that barely covered our needs
00:43With the rise of the right to power, many traditional values return, preserved
00:47This is from the traditional family, this is the role of the man, and this is the role of the man
00:53regardless of personal beliefs and what each person wishes for their partner
00:57and their love life. Money is power, and having a space and a voice in the public sphere.
01:06Ultimately, it's what determines how society functions.
01:10So if women return to this role of staying at home taking care of our children and our husbands
01:16Those who are out there deciding on our futures, and the most important thing about economic autonomy is being able to leave whenever we want.
01:24And I believe that many women don't leave their relationships or abusive relationships because of financial reasons.
01:32And not because they can't, as I was just telling you. Perhaps sometimes there are clearly structural problems.
01:39of economic possibilities
01:41But often they can, and because of this fear of not being able to let go of the belief, I won't
01:46to be able to let go
01:46which is extremely difficult, it even happened to me
01:49And I had the money. For me at that moment, starting to make money for Girls was just a... it was
01:55like a trotting horse
01:57That's how I like to see it. To attack with violence. So I said, like... well, okay. I mean,
02:03Let's take the aesthetics, let's take the language
02:05Let's take what's trending on social media, which is this hyper-feminine, super-aesthetic, super-like aesthetic.
02:11soft girl life
02:14And let's talk about money.
02:15Thank you!
