it’s hilarious how Albion Finch, a seasoned Featherington husband, holds back Harry Dankworth, the newbie, when he tries to catch up with Prudence. Mr. Finch is like, “Nah, you’ll want to just hang back with me. It’s safer here.” 😂

Women sharing their countless stories the last few days has been heartbreaking. But as many have pointed out, this is a male problem. They've done the hard work so we can do the bare minimum. Teach empathy to boys. Challenge yourself and your mates. Listen to and believe women.
