And this is exactly why men will do anything to stop us from being able to speak, to silence us, to prevent us from using accurate language, to make sure we're never alone together as women, that we're never talking to another woman unsupervised without a male there to watch over us and make sure we're not 'misbehaving'

Disinformation like this is designed to discourage you, to make you feel you’re powerless against the monsters of the world. They want you to feel that way, because they are terrified of your power to make change.

Take your power back. Demand better. Keep fighting for a better world, because a better world is possible.
