A senator has called for educational materials from the MEC to be discarded because their content promotes 'machismo' and 'submission.' The request targets the overall content of the teaching resources. 'Machismo' refers to male dominance, while 'submission' points to an expectation that women should defer or comply. The senator argues that this messaging can normalize unequal roles in everyday life. Removing the materials would take them out of circulation rather than simply revise them. The published information does not name the senator or the documents, and no vote is reported. The dispute centers on whether official teaching resources reproduce a hierarchy between men and women.
