Before everyone starts suggesting that maybe Kyle Clifford was ‘suffering from mental health issues’ which ‘caused him’ to tie up and shoot three women, let me shoot some facts here: 1. There is not a single mental disorder listed or described in the DSM which states that it

The Pelicot case is the most horrific rapes I’ve ever read but I can’t stop thinking about this part. For years, she went to doctors for answers about memory loss. She must have felt like she was losing her mind. And her husband sat right next to her, knowing he was drugging her.

global headlines back to back. what an absolutely sick, terrifying world women must navigate.

This is Dominique Pélicot. The husband behind the most harrowing rape case in France. Inspite of Gisèle (wife) being the epitome of courage right now and choosing to go for a public trial to warn and educate other women of such perpetrators, the husband's pic is not being shared

This one has a target audience. It’s a large number of men on here that need to read this at least hourly everyday.

"Not all men" - but so many men helped Gisele Pelicot's husband: The 73 men who came to her house and raped her. The 3 men who left - and didn't call the police. The thousands of men who saw the ads on the website - and didn't call the police. theguardian.com/world/article/…

The fact that she waived her right to have a closed trial so that ALL those men could be named publicly must never be underestimated. She’s helped/protected so many more women.

When seeking justice for multiple rapes is reframed as ‘seeking revenge’, you know you’re governed by abusers and criminals.

How is it possible that every week we hear a story 10x worse than the previous

Woman drugged and raped by almost 100 men for a decade. Another woman strangled and her body blended into a puree. Yet you men still won't (and I mean WON'T) acknowledge the very real epidemic of male violence towards women. LOOK at what we live in fear of, for FUCK sake.

Every woman deserves safety, especially at Christmas. Support Women’s Aid and help save lives.
