Today, I was thinking about the many girls and women hurt by the men they were supposed to trust. The girls still terrified to speak. The women finally finding their voices. I want to thank all the women speaking out despite this horrible agenda of silence against us.

Women do not get raped because of their clothes. Women do not get raped because of their attitude. Women do not get raped because of their morals. Women do not get raped because of anything they did wrong. Women get raped because men choose to rape them.

Recently, a man wrote to me saying violence against women is a problem, but he also had to lock his car every night. Don't compare abuse and rape to a car being stolen. Women's bodies are not property. Stop asking us to tolerate what you never would.

Most abusers are fully capable of controlling their behaviour, and are especially careful to treat her well at the start of the relationship.

The abuser will convince not only her but also her friends and family, that he is a nice guy willing to support and protect her. He will abuse her later.

1 in 3 women have experienced physical or sexual violence worldwide. 15 million adolescent girls have been raped. 6 women are killed every hour by people they know. Violence against women is a human rights violation of pandemic proportions. Enough is enough.
