is the media feigning surprise that the man who shot three women in a hairdressers was one of the womens' exes?
Feminists worked very hard during the seventies to raise public consciousness about rape. Malestream media went all out in its propaganda to convince women that the streets were a danger so they should stay inside like good little girls, when IN FACT they were far more likely to be raped, beaten or murdered in their own homes. It took a lot of campaigning to get this message, out there, and showing people the hard evidence and the stats helped.
I think we're going to have to do the same with femicide. Because men almost always murder and beat women they're currently in, or used to be in, a relationship with.
yet to hear the media tell it men attack women randomly
