Valentine 2019
This year the Student Recreation Centre along with the Delegation of Students, has decided to dedicate Valentine’s Day to Marcela and Elisa, who were married in 1901 by the church, passing one of them for a man. Technically it was the first marriage between two women in Spain. In Twitter thread format, we wanted to remember this story to vindicate the diversity in love and struggle of many women who, like Elisa and Marcela, want to be free to love those they love.
We have also wanted to denounce toxic behaviors and widespread and commonly accepted myths about love, which we could actually call romantic love behaviors, which many people have internalized as the only possible form of relationship and, nevertheless, ends up being the most painful
With all this, the Student House and the Delegation of Students we wish you a happy Valentine full of sincere, real, conscious, reviewed and critical love.
