I always thought Jessica Eaton was great anyway, but I didn’t know this about her! She really is inspirational.

So I thought this board could do with a nice positive thread about exactly how brilliant women really are.

Jessica if you’re lurking, I’m in awe of you, very, very well done

She is currently on a plane. She is indeed awesome as fuck.

She is! And she's not even 30.

weeps

She is! And she's not even 30

I know!! I feel inadequate which I know is not the point of her tweets! I’m pretty sure she’d Like everybody to take away the message that she did it and women everywhere can too. Total Shero.

Now, come on. Dr Jessica Eaton.

Dr Eaton is an inspiration

X post

An amazing woman, so happy for her, she so deserves it.

She is amazing and wonderful and a lovely person in real life too.

Dr

Oooh shit

@MNHQ please edit my badly written op!

She is fabulous. A difficult background, some trauma - major trauma - and turned all around in the most spectacularly relevant way.

One of the the most articulate and incisive women I can think of.

Her analyses are razor sharp, and always shot through with humanity.

Omg she’s going to NZ to speak about victim
blaming?!?! Jessica if you’re reading, I hope you get an appointment with NZ Rugby! I wish I was on twitter for a minute or two so I could tell her about what they’re like over there!!

Oh and YES!! Go you

I’ve never heard of her until this thread but she seems very inspirational.

She is incredibly inspiring & extraordinarily productive!

This is her Victim Focus website with really important resources:
www.victimfocus.org.uk/

Fantastic, congrats, Dr.

Wow, I've just read her blog post "why education will never stop rape" , brilliant. She's also written an article called "stop asking me what about men". Will read later when kids in bed.

You are awesome Dr Eaton

She’s bloody awesome!

Hahahaha! She's on a plane to NZ just now and someone's just alerted her to this thread.

This is another brilliant & important blog post by Dr Jessica Eaton:

"All the things I want to say to women and girls who have been abused by men"

She's on a plane to NZ just now and someone's just alerted her to this thread.

Good! You give it to them in NZ, I’m Māori, they’re been victim blaming the women of NZ for years!!

Dr Eaton’s seen MY thread I’m proper starstruck 🤩

Thanks (as always) for all the links R0wan great to have everything linked together.

I can't see the tweet but I have been enormously inspired by her work.

I think Dr Eaton is an incredible woman, I have read some of her work but I hadn’t read the piece posted above “all the things I want to say to women and girls who have been abused by men” . I read it a few minuted ago and it made me cry. I will read it again tomorrow.
She is inspiring, truly.
