This is where the language of 'sex work' leads. Trafficking and exploitation become erased.

In the article linked in the next tweet, published just a few days ago, 'pop up' brothels run by organised crime, in which the women are believed to be trafficked and exploited, are being discussed. Yet the title still says 'sex work.'

Even Cllr Jeannie Bell, lead of the regions Modern Slavery Network, uses confused language.

This has to stop.

Ice loss on Konkordiaplatz, Great Aletsch Glacier, during summer 2026. No words...

A layer of almost 6 metres of ice is gone. In the center of the biggest glacier of the Alps. It is hard to grasp even for glaciologists.

This is heartbreaking and incredibly hard to hear 💔

Quetta, Pakistan: A three year old girl is reportedly being forced into marriage with a 60, year, old man because of financial pressure on her family.

After a dispute, the man reportedly said he would leave the three year old and instead wanted to marry her five year old sister.

Some sources also reports that another young girl from the same family was previously killed, and that no justice has been served for her.

Where are human rights? Where are children’s rights? Where is the UN?

Reino Unido: un hombre admite haber drogado y violado a su esposa durante más de veinte años. Otro implicado también admitió las agresiones sexuales a la víctima, y hay otros doce acusados. El juicio continuará en las próximas semanas.

"¿A quién le entregamos al bebé?"

Madres "subrogadas" obligadas, al dar a luz, a entregar el bebé a otra pareja distinta a la que habían contactado, oligarcas chinos como Xu Bo comprando decenas y centenares de bebés al mismo tiempo...

She dared to remove her chador before Ayatollah Khomeini. In October 1979, Italian journalist Oriana Fallaci traveled to Qom, Iran, to interview the Islamic Revolution's supreme leader.

To get inside the room, Fallaci was forced to cover herself from head to toe in a heavy black chador, leaving only her face visible.

The conversation inside the room was tense from the very start. Fallaci did not hold back her questions.

She pushed the Ayatollah on political executions, the sudden shutdown of independent newspapers, and the sharp loss of rights for Iranian women under the new regime.

When she asked about the forced wearing of the veil, Khomeini dismissed her concerns and claimed the garment was meant to protect young and respectable women. He then added,

"If you do not like the Islamic dress, you are not obliged to wear it."

Fallaci took his words literally and replied, "Thank you, Mr. Imam. Since you tell me so, I am taking it off right now."

With a quick move, she pulled the chador off her head, leaving her hair completely exposed right in front of the Supreme Leader.

Khomeini was furious.
He stood up without saying another word and walked out of the room. The room fell silent, and the interview was abruptly stopped. However, Fallaci refused to leave Iran until he returned a day later to finish the conversation.

This confrontation became legendary in the history of journalism.
It showed a reporter refusing to bow down to authority, even in one of the most dangerous settings imaginable.

Fallaci proved that real journalism requires standing up to power, asking hard questions, and refusing to be silenced by fear or tradition.

When journalists trade raw courage for easy access and comfortable silence, we lose one of our strongest shields against tyranny.

In an era where true courage in reporting feels rare, her brave stand reminds us that honest journalism still has the power to light up the dark, giving a voice to the voiceless and inspiring future generations to speak truth without fear.

Casi todos los casos salen a la luz por "casualidad", porque la Policía detiene a los violadores por otros delitos.

Las víctimas sufren amnesia inducida por la sedación, no denuncian.

Al ser crímenes perpetrados por sus maridos o parejas estables no sospechan de ellos.

No son monstruos ni hechos aislados, hay un andamiaje social que los sostiene.

El juicio a Dominique Pelicot ha provocado un efecto dominó y ha destapado en todo el mundo decenas de casos de hombres que drogan a sus parejas para ofrecerlas en plataformas digitales.

Abren un chat y encuentran rápidamente en su radio de acción a hombres de todas las edades dispuestos a violar a una mujer inconsciente.

Decenas de miles de hombres comparten consejos, fotos y vídeos sobre cómo drogar y violar mujeres. 1/2

"Una niña de 13 años no se prostituye". Tampoco lo hace ninguna mujer si puede elegir.
En Auxerre, Francia, el abogado de una menor logra que la investigación se amplíe sobre los pederastas violadores. La niña fue violada 950 veces. #ViolenciaSexual https://t.co/u4itiaoF7K

No lo entiendo.

Un abusador sexual infantil debería perder automáticamente la patria potestad.

@jk_rowling In Canada, a man who raped a three-month old infant is housed in a women's rehabilitation facility with a mother-child unit.

When Amnesty says "human rights," they mean men.

"Trans rights" means granting predatory and depraved men more rights than women.

"Incidents occurred at venues with shared facilities.

No crimes were recorded at centres with single-sex facilities.

Incidents were reported at pools which had mixed-sex shared showers and changing facilities.

51 incidents of voyeurism and 30 sexual offences against young girls were reported, with 11 involving youngsters under the age of 13...

25 sexual assaults and 21 other sexual offences were reported, and in total there were 81 female victims. All offences were committed between 2023 and 2025."

Tuve la ocasión de entrevistar a un compraniños estafado por una de esas empresas de gestación subrogada que se han ido a la quiebra.

Muy dolido por la pérdida del dinero, quiso vengarse contando los horrores que cometía la agencia.

Y da pavor.

Doctors X-rayed pregnant women routinely in the 1950s to check which way round the baby was lying. Nobody thought it was dangerous.

Alice Stewart noticed childhood leukaemia rising sharply in Britain and set out to find why. She and her team interviewed the mothers of 1,400 children who had died of cancer, and 1,400 mothers whose children were alive, and asked them the same questions.

The pattern showed up in the first 35 pairs. Children who had died were about twice as likely to have been X-rayed in the womb, and a single scan at the dose used then appeared to be enough.

She published in 1956, and the response was outrage. Radiation was the technology of the future in the 1950s, and the claim that a low dose could cause cancer years later contradicted what the entire medical and nuclear establishment believed. Her methods were attacked. Her funding suffered. Doctors carried on X-raying pregnant women.

It took roughly 25 years for the medical world to come round. Pregnant women were still routinely X-rayed into the late 1970s. Two decades after she told them to stop. She retired in 1974 and did her most contested work afterwards, in her seventies, examining the health records of American nuclear weapons workers. Her findings there were unwelcome enough that the Department of Energy cut off her access to the data. She spent 14 years fighting them and testified before Congress, and in 1990 the records were opened to independent researchers.

She died in 2002, aged 95. The children who were never X-rayed have no idea who she was.

The day after her emergency caesarean, Serena Williams walked out of her hospital room so her mother would not see, found a nurse, and told her between gasps exactly which scan and which drug she needed.

She had survived a pulmonary embolism in 2010, so she knew what a blood clot in the lungs felt like. She had been off her daily blood thinner for the surgery. She could not breathe.

She did not say she felt short of breath. She said she needed a CT scan of her lungs with contrast dye and a heparin drip, by name.

The nurse told her the pain medication was probably making her confused. She insisted. A doctor arrived and performed an ultrasound of her legs instead. It found nothing, which is what an ultrasound of the legs finds when the clot is in your lungs. Her recollection of that moment is asking why she was getting a Doppler when she had told them what she needed.

They sent her for the CT. It found several clots sitting in her lungs, and she was on the heparin drip minutes later. It was not over. The coughing brought on by the clots tore her caesarean wound open, and surgery found a large bleed in her abdomen. Four operations in a week, then six weeks flat on her back at home.

She has said since that being heard was the difference between living and dying, and she is one of the most recognisable people on the planet.

She had the diagnosis before they did. She had to argue for it anyway.
