Despite all of these advancements towards sexual equality, Cuba is still a male-dominated society. Women have made great progress in the workplace, but some are still often relegated to doing most household tasks. This is probably due to the deep-rooted institution of machismo found in all Latin American countries. In case you don’t know, machismo is the belief in the natural superiority of men in all fields of endeavor. It becomes the obsession and constant preoccupation of many Latin men to demonstrate they are macho in a variety of ways.
There is no telling what lengths men will go to in order to demonstrate their virility. A man’s virility is measured by the number of seductions or conquistas he makes, or his capacity to consume alcohol. Women walking alone on the street are the target of sexual comments and innuendos by men. These piropos or flirtatious remarks range from ordinary compliments about a woman's beauty to obscene and often insulting phrases. Among males, virility is highly esteemed and disparaging names are pinned on homosexuals.

Excellent! I remember Cuba having some pretty surreal window displays, either nearly empty, very dated products or just generally quirky, this is a great example!
