Can men stop talking about women in relation to themselves? We shouldn’t need to be mothers, wives, sisters and daughters for you to realise we deserve safety and freedom.
The 'don't walk alone at night' narrative fed to women is not only intended as an agent of social control, but has a subtext of privilege. If you don't have a car, if you have to work late at night, if you don't have a man to 'protect you' then 'don't walk alone' is impossible.
Tw// sexual harassment
I can’t begin to put into words the grief I feel over #SarahEverard a woman who was simply walking home.
I think of all the times I was doing what she was doing and my blood runs cold.
My heart goes out to her family and loved ones
Amazing talk by @OurStreetsNow at today's @YouthFocusNW session
All about their work to end public sexual harassment
2/3 of girls have experienced unwanted sexual attention in public - myself being one of those.
Check out the thread to see what you can do:
Thank you so much to @OurStreetsNow for the talk! I and many other people around me have experienced public sexual harassment and it’s so great to see a campaign to put a stop to it #crimenotcompliment#yofo21#youthvoice
Excited for virtual life yofo today! Definitely not the same online but a massive pro is that I got a lie in instead of getting up for a train!😂 The theme of today is intersectionality and equality which is always relevant!!
Wow! Can’t believe it’s a year ago today since not only did I look incredible in orange but I also got to speak to sky news about life as a young woman!! Oh how time flies!! #youthvoice
Being a student in a global pandemic is just so draining!! you realise your days are just spent online and human interaction seems like a long ago thing
