Abstract
"El miedo al parto se ha convertido a lo largo del último siglo en un miedo social normalizado para hombres y mujeres, hayan sido éstas madres o no. El miedo a este proceso se inscribe en la población a partir de los discursos médicos que son transmitidos con autoridad mediante el contacto regular entre el personal sanitario y las pacientes (Sánchez, 2008, 72). También a partir de los textos literarios y audiovisuales y, en la última década, con las redes sociales, que facilitan una transmisión de información y opinión. Este artículo trata de indagar el peso de los discursos transmitidos personalmente entre mujeres, parientes y amigas a lo largo de la vida de las protagonistas, y se basa en una investigación cualitativa con entrevistas a mujeres, madres o no, de entre 20 y 90 años en la provincia de Barcelona" ["Over the last century, fear of birth has become a standardized social fear for men and women, regardless of whether or not they are mothers. This fear of the childbirth process arrives to the population via medical discourses that are transmitted with authority through regular contact between health workers and patients (Sánchez, 2008, 72). It is also transmitted via literary texts and audio-visual media and, in the last decade, through social networks that spread information and opinions. This article seeks to reveal the specific weight of the narratives personally transmitted between female relatives and friends throughout the lives of women. The text is based on qualitative research conducted through interviews with women between the ages of 20 and 90 in the province of Barcelona"]
