PCI Media Impact, a non-profit organization specializing in the use of Entertainment Education to promote social change created their Ecuadorian serial drama, "Toque Magico (Magic Touch)" in 2008 to promote youth awareness of gender equality and assist in the cultural elimination of inequity and prevention of violence against women. In this, episode IV,Magdalena experiences sexist treatment from Professor Contreras, trainer of the domesticated dragons workshop, who labels her as weak and unintelligent, and is certain she is only in the workshop to find a husband. The disrespect towards the witches also manifests itself between fellow apprentices. Reinaldo, along with his group of friends, leads the harassment against the little witches with stares, shameless catcalls and even going so far as to touch them. Barbi, fed up with Reinaldo's harassment, slaps him in order to get the respect of the sorcerers.
