Different eras, same social issues: ‘Maria Clara at Ibarra’ just proves that we’re not *truly* free from our past | via scoutmagph
But besides the nostalgia and giggles, I am also amazed by its biting social commentary. “Maria Clara at Ibarra” already has 10 episodes so far and I love how it isn’t stifled by a mediocre storyline and so-so production values. Without losing the plot, the show smoothly touches on some pressing social issues that are surprisingly still very relevant today.
With a couple of hundred years apart, you’d think our modern-day situation would at least be better. But the joke’s on us because this specific sequence is reminiscent of the numerous cases ofCrisostomo Ibarra’s group of friends demeaning women. As shown in the series, education was only largely available to men because of stereotypical beliefs that women were better off at home as pliant daughters, wives, or mothers. Even their opinions were usually considered irrelevant.
Such a familiar scenario, isn’t it? As much as women can study whatever discipline they want now, many people still think they aren’t as capable and competent as men are.
