This is why it’s so difficult to talk about violent and abusive men because everyone is looking for the ‘monsters’ but they aren’t monsters they are literally just the men that you know, there’s no transformation or removing a mask, it is just them.
This is a statement written by Sarah Everard’s mother. It’s beautifully written, the pain is palpable, and the content is poignant. It’s heartbreaking to read, and yet it barely even scrapes the surface of the agony she must be feeling. RIP Sarah. #SheWasJustWalkingHome
The Sarah Everard narrative has completely changed. It’s not that she was just walking home, it’s that she was stopped and ‘arrested’ under false pretences by someone with the ‘power’ and full intention to harm her. How the hell are you supposed to protect yourself from that?!
