:D I have to say, when I suggested calling cards, the black magic music was ringing in my ears!
I love the idea of a Movement. We do need to stand up for women, on the tube, in the pub, in the hospitals, in our surgeries.
We need it, even in the 'civilised' society, which is horrifying. One is perhaps kind of anaesthetised against the shock of the horror of the two young girls found hanging, the 200 kidnapped, the stoned pregnant woman, her 'widowed husband' killed his 1st wife to marry her too Ffs. These places are barbaric, perhaps they don't even know any better. What can be expected?
I know there's zero excuse for any of this, but i'm sure you see what I mean. This treatment of our sex must stop. It can't go on.
No religion deemed this acceptable, Man did. Well Man can Man up, the 'party' is over.
Having a need for one of us to speak up on a train in the UK is horrific.
This is Clapham Junction ffs. It shouldn't happen here, or in London, or in Manchester or cardiff, or anywhere in this country. In plain sight? Broad daylight? How dare he?
Our lot is so much better than it is for some in other parts of the world, but still that's not good enough.
Standing up for women, showing clearly that this behaviour towards us is unreasonable and out of order, having police/security to back that up and courts to process would surely do some good? Right?
Our children need educating that this is unacceptable, our teens, young adults. Our brothers cousins, fathers, grand fathers.
Sexism and misogyny must be treated seriously. The lord accused of sexual harassment must go, apology or no apology. We must, as a society be surgical with our amputation of rancid and toxic parts.
We need society to stop casual Sexism in music, fashion, sport, work, everywhere.
