My sister has just a few days left in her accommodation in Galway and is in need of something urgently before she starts college! Please reach out if you know of any rooms going 🙏
While I truly believe my case will set a precedent, we need to stop this happening in the first place. I’m calling on those in power to do more, and inviting them to meet with me. I was left suicidal after my court experience - we need to stop gambling with lives and act now.
STOP TELLING WOMEN AND GIRLS TO GO THROUGH INVASIVE, RISKY SURGERIES TO MAKE MONEY. These mfs invent new ways to make women and girls feel bad about our bodies. Why the fuck would anyone REQUIRE a labiaplasty?
There were people yelling “go back to where you came from” tonight but as I walked down Fleet Street there was also an Irish man ushering a woman with a headscarf along saying “I don’t want you to walk alone, I don’t want to you to be a target.” He had just met her.
I was a young carer. I looked after my mum and sometimes my sister as well. I was late a lot.
10 minute detention if you were late, 3 lates and you got an hour the following week.
"You need to be responsible."
No. I had responsibilities coming out my ears. What I needed was help.
67,169 rapes were recorded by police in 2022.
By the end of the year, charges had been brought in just 1,276 (1.9%) of these cases.
Less than 2 in 100 rapes recorded by police in 2022 resulted in a charge that same year - let alone a conviction.
That’s all I have to say.
Women see other women get abused and they create shelters, organizations and movements to protect themselves.
Men see other men get abused and they laugh, joke and belittle those men.
You won’t see one because you are waiting for women to do all the work as usual
Thanks to everyone who has supported our campaign, signed the petition, reached out for help and encouraged us to keep pushing when others told us it would never happen! Today is a huge milestone for Irish legislation and we hope this will help many people in the future ❤️
@evemcdowell_ I was on a waiting list for a urology appointment for 6 years 🙃 eventually I just told them to take me off this list and and that I’ll do it privately. Hse is a joke
