A Holiday colony of Space He is under judicial investigation, after at least four parents denounced that their children, minors, were forced to bathe mixed next to leaders in mixed groups.
The incident occurred during the European summer, but exploded in the last hours because the judicial investigation and a Basque half progress, the mail, published that the cases are repetitive and that justice did not intervene in «time and form.»
The focus is on More than 500 boys that attended this organization that is now being pointed out.
It is an organization that is dedicated to youth camps during the summer: Tarelea Basque City Council Association. Camps that are usually made in Bernedo, Álava, in the Basque Country.
After the scandal, the organizers explained in a statement that the bathrooms are «An opportunity to break stigmas and free us from shame and sexualization». But complaints can multiply. He talks about crimes against «sexual freedom», «minor abuse» and with the «disturbing that this experience was for several of the girls.»
Hours ago, the Basque half published letters of fist and lyrics of the minors towards their parents denouncing the actions of the youth organization. «They force us to shower in mixed groups and the explanation they give us is that there are several trans that cannot feel marginalized or categorized. This is very uncomfortable«The baby complained.
Another father warned in a Spanish channel that his 9 -year -old son returned traumatized in the camp. «He returned traumatized and in an unfortunate state. A horrible horror Because he told me that he preferred not to bathe because they forced him to do it with girls, «he said.
“My son is 9 years old, he knows what the female reproductive system is, the masculine, But I didn’t want to bathe with the girls. I had modesty. He wet his head a little to deceive the leaders. He made them believe that he had also bathed, ”he continued.
During the interview, the discomfort of man was increasing. «That was not there, when the monitors (in charge) were in the pool they did topless. And they explained that it should not be scared because what they were seeing was normal life, everything was ‘inclusive’,» he said.
One of the complainant parents confirmed that «the monitors (male managers) bathed with their daughters and that They walked naked in the camp«.» One of the boys told me that one of the chefs of the camp was naked. That only covered with the apron. In fact Some girls saute meals because they disgusted them«He denounced.
A mother confirmed to EFETV that her daughter returned from the «scared and traumatized» camp, for the obligation to shower naked in front of the monitors (male managers).
In a letter to her mother, the baby said that the monitors also walked «in tits» through the camp and that some of the managers walked through the facilities «with the genitals in the air.»
At this time, the Prosecutor’s Office is making a statement to several of the minors who were in the place.
Controversy for judicial investigation
The complaints made in Justice point out that at no time the Basque group reported about «mixed showers» or «interaction in bathrooms with personnel in charge.» And they focus on the «abuses» suffered by minors since going against «social binarism» for «an imposition of nudism» is «absurd and illegal,» they said.
Several organizations went to the intersection of the complaints and shielded that the camps had three basic pillars: nature, the Basque (the use of the Basque language), and feminism. Initially, several of them defended themselves, but then accused of «transbós» to those who denounced the abuse of minors.
«We must abolish binarism and denounce compulsory heterosexuality,» several of the groups that raised the voice.
From the pointed entity they insist that «we must deepen and work even more about the desexualization of nudity» and justify their actions in showers as a «way to normalize all bodies.»
In a statement, Sarrea Euskal Udaleku Elkartea lamented the «defamatory messages and traffic» and normalized the topic of the showers «how a simple place of hygiene.» «It is an opportunity to break stigmas and free us from shame and sexualization,» they said.
«We strongly condemn the transfobos attacks that we have suffered in both social networks and the persecution that we have suffered in the media – they complain – we refer to the hate messages that have been disseminated. We are forced to clarify our ideological foundations and explain the reasons for our methods,» the statement continues.
«Our educational project is based on transfminist values and seeks to create safe spaces for all identities and bodies. We work from this perspective, breaking gender stereotypes and seeing as an educational opportunity the discomfort that differences can generate,» they explained.
And they close: «In society, bathrooms are a tool to divide people according to binary and gender logic. This division, in addition to excluding different bodies and identities, causes situations of discrimination.»
The truth is that the holiday colony was in the focus of the storm and is being investigated. Article 185 of the Spanish Criminal Code considers a crime “who will execute or make another person execute exhibition acts before minors”, and provides prison sentences that go from six months to a year or economic fine.
