Withdrawal of GBV cases is a real problem so I’d like to see the evidence that informs a “solution” that’s likely to disincentive and criminalise abused women who lack resources, or fear for their lives, from reporting. Imagine we end up convicting more victims than perpetrators.

Happy holidays, folks! Remember to believe and support survivors, employ the public health guidelines to protect yourselves from COVID19, and have a jol! Most importantly, remember to ask for consent. ❤️

New year, same vibes: 1. Seek enthusiastic consent. 2. Believe, support, and stand with survivors of SGBV. 3. Unlearn problematic and harmful beliefs. 4. Be an active bystander and call out violence and abuse. Add your own, and... Happy 2021!

This is why Comprehensive Sexuality Education (CSE) is super important! Empowering boys and girls + men and women and nonbinary persons has the potential and power to address the unequal power dynamics that we see, first, in society and, second, in the bedroom.

Rape culture doesn’t just happen. It’s a complex set of ‘small’ acts, beliefs and stereotypes that create an environment in which the dignity of women is like...not a thing. Wherever it is — especially in schools — it must be disrupted. See you all tomorrow. #ShutItAllDown

Count us in! 💕 We can’t emphasise the importance of comprehensive sexuality education in teaching consent, positive perceptions on sex and sexuality, and communication in sexual acts. #ShutItAllDown

We stand with and by you and Xuro. Homophobia is patriarchal violence which — no matter how small it seems — makes persons of sexual and gender minorities ‘disposable’. If you needed a reminder that homophobic views are dangerous and violent, this is one.
