\nAdapting to gender stereotypes is an invisible and insidious process of incorporating conventional and hierarchic norms, images and habits; it is therefore deeply rooted and more persistent than the superficial liberalism of modern western values of equality. BPT has the special potential of affecting social behavior patterns, individual character traits as well as biological and energetic resources to decode social clich\u00e9s, thus supporting resources of somatic freedom and psychic choices for all genders with an awareness for social imprints and restrictions. It can set stimuli for individual as well as social change, broadening our scope of choices and preferences.

The Big Five of Mothers, or: The normal client is a mother<\/h5>\n
\nAnne Meinhold
\n[abstract]
\n70% of clients in BPT are women and 75% of these are mothers. This means: the normal client is a mother! For thousands of years selflessness is being seen as the essence of motherhood. We can observe the downside of this attitude in five typical phenomena our maternal clients are showing in our practices, such as overtaxing, chronic feelings of guilt and shame, lack of self-confidence and exhaustion. In psychotherapeutic theory the subjective perspective of mothers in pregnancy, birth and mother-child-relationship is rather neglected. How can BPT support the unfolding of the creative and transformative female potential? How can BPT contribute to alter the idealized maternal selflessness thus preventing the inevitable burnout of mothers?

\n—<\/p>\nGender Stereotypes in Eastern and Western Culture<\/h5>\n
\nEdoardo Pera
\n[abstract]
\nI worked for many years in projects related to Gender based violence, trauma and refugees in the Middle East and other eastern countries. Gender stereotypes affect both men and women. It is interesting to analyze the differences between these stereotypes in western and eastern culture. There are things that cannot be changed only by law, they are calling for a a psycho- and emotional education. What are the emotions and feelings behind discrimination and gender rigidity? Behind fear, sexophobia, anger? Are men and women able to be confronted with these differences without emotional hyper-reaction? Can we find a way to appreciate differences during our common path?<\/p>\n

\n—<\/p>\nNon-binary Gender identities<\/h5>\n
\nIrena Markus
\n[abstract]
\nOne of the main way power relations expressed itself is in creating tension of binary distribution of power, that is often genderial: the – masculine is powerful and dominating, the feminine \u2013 powerless and submissive.
\nGender identities that don’t conform with the binary gender stereotypes, such as “Butch- Femme”, transgender, gender- queer, are perceived as abnormal and as such, are not acknowledged as a valid experience.
\nBPT may support the embodiment process of other non-binary identities, by the embodiment of the marginalized non-binary gender, creating a new context, in which the gender identities were acknowledged as a new form of experience, with a new meaning and new genderial power relations.

\n—<\/p>\nPioneers of a New Manhood<\/h5>\n
\nMarc Rackelmann
\n[abstract]
\nFor some time now many men are on their way to a modern manhood. This includes, amongst other things, equal partnership models, committed paternity and caring relationships with their male friends. The contradictory juxtaposition of old role expectations – not only in the professional realm – and new life models often leads to conflict. In contrast to the women’s movement, men in their quest still lack an unifying and attractive model of a different kind of manhood. Body psychotherapy in particular can support men in finding a more mindful way of dealing with themselves, enhancing their relational capabilities, their capability to dealing with conflicts and to be positively anchored in their manhood.
