We women trampled, can not but speak of

Dear Editor, when conducting an investigation concerning a public figure, the inevitable amplification media that follows is insidious. Usually, the items disclosed are only those collected by prosecutors. It ends like this to give the chrism of truth to the idea that if parziali.E thesis makes public opinion can be altered. As a lawyer, so I feel obliged to point out that the investigation into Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi should not be an exception: before making judgments on the merits of the allegations made against him by the prosecution, must no doubt await the developments of the proceedings. Given this premise, but I hasten to add that I am not agree with those who use this argument as a weapon to crush any type of critical reflection: I have indeed heard these days rely on the presumption of innocence in order to silence those who challenged not consummation of the offense but emerged historical facts objectively, without which no process can ever cancellare.In Ultimately, if an order is first necessary to wait for clarification on the existence of certain crimes, one can not ignore the fact that not everything that has emerged in recent days is "awaiting trial" means the objective context in which the events were acquired procedural did not suddenly pierced a veil and showed a totally new and unexpected profile of the premier. Milan will be discussed in classrooms where Silvio Berlusconi has or has not consumed the crime of child prostitution and extortion, but was not necessarily the events underlying these claims - or a sentence - to know his views on women. Opinion that, if not criminal law, however, has huge political importance. An opinion expressed by himself unequivocally with jokes, jokes, public and private talks. An opinion that has emerged already through the declarations of Veronica Lario, the most recent of Barbara Berlusconi (two very credible witnesses), the story of Letizia, Patrizia D'Addario, and by the singular issue for some women, perhaps the first list of candidates included in the European elections of 2009 and then from that list definitely missing. What Silvio Berlusconi appears to be fully appreciated in the female gender is the beauty, to the point of overshadowing requirements of very different thickness (I think it remained in the memory of all the crudeness of the measure to Mrs Rosy Bindi), even better Then, if a physical appearance of a certain type is accompanied by a young age, compliance and willingness to abdicate their critical spirit. In the face of all this, I felt it would be argued that issues of privacy and therefore prime minister - for this very reason - should cover only he and his coscienza.No, it is not. There is no room to support it: the style and philosophy of life of a man who holds the office of President of the Council can not fail to affect public life. This is demonstrated by the fact that Berlusconi, with his words and his behavior has inflicted an injury to all Italian women: women who study and work (often feeling inadequate salaries or, as in the case of housewives, viewed not at all), a all of us who toil day after another for women to achieve positions of importance not only to certain parties did not go there, but rather had to give up seeing friends, how many, instead of look for shortcuts, have traveled with dignity the way of commitment and sacrifice. And for those that have been asked, more or less explicitly, to choose between privacy and public life, for a reconciliation with his son's success would be too difficult with the result that gave up for motherhood, or that we have come far beyond the moment when they voluto.A each of them - when women are chosen and "rewarded" by not to merit but to something else with the professionalism, commitment, intelligence has little or nothing to do - has been poured upon the futility of his sacrificio.Brucia, this wound. Burns also did not escape because they are really Many people point out, perhaps even with a hint of envy, luck and charm of a mature man who more or less surrounded by handsome young contending his favors, ready to do anything to please him. Although, in a macho country like ours, the complicity between men crowd but not surprising. But it is not only a wound inflicted on the dignity of women, there's more, never the battles of the President of the Council have coincided with the struggles of women. It is sufficient to recall that in the lists of priorities of this government, that are gradually pitted, figure of all - first of all, battles against judges "communist" - but never, never, battles for women. As if women did not have real problems and can not be postponed. As it can be assumed that the laws to combat pm "politicized" are more urgent than they should meet the needs of all of us? Then cover with the excuse of confidentiality of investigations, or the fragile shield of privacy, what is not secret, nor confidential.
