Babies get raped. Elderly women get raped. Women dressed modestly get raped. Women in hijabs get raped. Nuns get raped. Women in jeans, tracksuits, pyjamas, school uniforms, work uniforms get raped. There is no outfit that prevents rape and no outfit that invites it.
If you are more comfortable analysing a woman’s clothing than condemning a rapist, you are part of the problem.
happy women's day but also let's pray for the women of palestine, congo, sudan, iran, afghanistan and every other women across the world who are having a harder time living than most of us.
Thousands of women look away when their partners molest children. The judge (a man) doubled her recommended sentence for not being one of those women; the pedophile is still free. This is what solidarity between men who have an interest in upholding rape culture looks like.
We should all be terrified of this level of impunity btw. Red lines don’t exist anymore, not for us. Israel went from denying that they bombed hospitals a month ago to bombing them live on air now. World leaders have given Israel the green light from the first massacre.
holocaust survivors are begging people to understand that what Israel is doing right now is exactly what was done to them by the nazis.
there is no argument to be had.
