as someone who has a family where almost every female on my mom side has been sexually assaulted, i feel the need to speak up about this for more people as im a general advocate for all things. But what pisses me off more is the fact these men have not went to jail. They shouldnt have to write essays, they should have to eat prison food. the justice system needs so much fucking refining that it could take years to fix it.
This note isn't to share my story, as a woman myself just know that a story is there. To Jane Doe - I'm sure it's pretty weird hearing and seeing people talk about you and your situation. I'm also sure you're having good days here and there but inside there's still something that doesn't feel quite right, and I'd be lying if I said that one day that feeling will just... disappear. If you do by chance see this just know how many women see you, how many of us love you, and how much you'll always be supported. The way you were treated was not the standard and you deserved better. You deserve better because you matter. As you continue on this path of life I want you to carry the strength with you everywhere, and if you ever need to borrow some - be aware you always have a sister looking out for you.
it’s been 10 years since the ‘me too’ movement and i ask what exactly has changed? university life for women and girls in particular is plagued with sexual violence. 1/5 women is likely to be sexually assaulted in college. at schools like Cornell the stat is something closer to 1/3. the fact that such insane numbers have been normalized and victims reduced to another story swept under the rug is unacceptable. institutions act like for profit corporations rather than protect their students. perpetrators are protected in this system and these schools don’t uphold the moral values they claim to strive by. accountability now. justice now. we are not asking politely anymore.
All this talk about how everyone was fine without phones in school before but not about how much the world has changed to the point where school without our phones is no longer a privilege we can afford taking.
As a girl around the same age of Hailey, this needs to be brought up in all schools, to bring awareness to not just children but teens and adults. Hailey didn’t deserve this , no one does.
Education is where change begins, absolutely every young woman should know the warning signs for grooming and abuse. As a mother myself teaching stranger danger is an obvious one but educating a teenager on these warning signs is often overlooked because violence in relationships and grooming seems rare until it’s someone you know.
