Here’s a short clip of our wonderful co-founder Nikki Owen discussing male violence against women and girls and how this is NOT a women’s safety issue!

Here’s another common example of sexual harassment and misogyny perpetrated by men.
🪧We are sick and tired of carrying our keys between our fingers.
🪧We are tired of always looking over our shoulders.
🪧We are tired of rearranging our plans to avoid being out past a particular hour.
🪧We are tired of being told that we should have dressed more conservatively.
🪧We are tired of sending our location to our family and friends (just in case).
We are tired. Instead of policies that promote the above, why don't we all (and government, we're looking at you, too):
🧡Teach men and boys about consent and respect.
🧡Call out misogynistic behaviour.
🧡Ensure the perpetrator alone is held accountable for their behaviour/crimes.
🧡Fix the system, not the women. (The title of a BRILLIANT book by Laura Bates that we recommend everyone reads, by the way)

Here’s a testimony from one of our supporters explaining her daughter’s experience of patriarchy at work.
Women and girls should not have to deal with these situations on a daily basis. This ends. Now.

Violence and abuse is not acceptable and should not be tolerated whether the victim-survivor is male or female.
Most violence experienced by men is perpetrated by men. This is why violence against women and girls (VAWG) is seen as gendered, taking place within patriarchy.
If you are a male victim-survivor of patriarchy and would be interested in sharing your experience, please get in touch.

This is an example by @guardian of the correct language to use when addressing sexual assault cases. @dailymail - take note and learn.
