Micro machismos: The power of the masked subjection of romantic love

Abstract

Introduction: The present investigation was a qualitative study. Objective: To identify the experiences of micromachisms that are exercised towards pregnant adolescents between 15 and 19 years of age. Methodology: The information was recovered from semi-structured interviews and life stories, the analysis was carried out through critical discourse analysis to 13 primigravida adolescents from 20 weeks of gestation in a state in the center of the country, theoretical saturation of the data was obtained. Results: The experiences of micromachisms are perceived as a social component in a context that physically and psychologically violates the pregnant adolescent. Conclusions: Adolescent motherhood appears in her imagination as a condition that enables and increases the domination relationships of her partners over them. On the other hand, fatherhood appears as a desirable experience for men, since it means the security that they will remain by their side, despite the adverse conditions that begin to be contemplated from the courtship. It is necessary to continue investigating the various forms of michomachisms exercised on adolescents from the constructs of men.
