0:00:00okay
0:00:12my research is about the f can practise of batch of push which is little
0:00:18or no in the western world
0:00:20let me explain the background
0:00:23in some parts of the world people believe it is very important to have a
0:00:28son
0:00:29value voice higher than girls
0:00:32we to the pressure to keep having children until it's on this board
0:00:37still
0:00:38some couples remained without a sun even after several attempts
0:00:44in afghanistan people have found it very unique solution to this problem
0:00:50if they do not have a song they dress one of the doctors like a
0:00:54boy and pretend it is this on
0:00:59the public place the game and the staging
0:01:02and agrees to treat the child just like a boy
0:01:08map run you can see on the left hand side of the picture
0:01:12turned into a boy when she was already five
0:01:17considering that gender segregation is widely spread in afghanistan
0:01:22the childhood of girls like many wrong is very unusual
0:01:27being allocated
0:01:29the social role of a whiny
0:01:31taking education experience equality and to varying degrees financial independence
0:01:39but once they reach marriage of h the masquerade as over
0:01:44instantly
0:01:46they have to be some thing
0:01:48that they have never lead to be
0:01:51well
0:01:54this practise follows very intricate construction of gender
0:02:00as these girls are expected to swap back and forth in that role
0:02:06and the public treats them according to the role they perform at a certain time
0:02:14in one pleases icon docked in depth interviews
0:02:18with adult african women who will race as voice
0:02:23my hypothesis are
0:02:26but in afghanistan there is a third generalists gender which allows girls
0:02:33two pass as voice
0:02:36furthermore
0:02:38gender is just an arbitrary
0:02:41and exchangeable role that we learn to perform in the lifelong process of learning
0:02:48using that f can practise as a case study
0:02:52allows illustrating but velocity of how gender is constructed
0:02:57and
0:02:58it may open or a rise to a gender understanding beyond female
0:03:04and male
0:03:06thank you very much
