#WhyIDidntReport #SexualAssault #Rape
In recent years, the national dialogue on sexual assault has deepened and expanded.
āIn recent years, the national dialogue on sexual assault has deepened and expanded. This includes widespread support for the #MeToo Movement, increased legislative efforts to hold perpetrators criminally accountable for their actions, and more. But while many people are glad that powerful men are finally being held accountable, itās important to remember that the work is far from over, and that there are still many meaningful ways to support sexual assault survivors.
Though itās always helpful to support causes on social media, itās especially crucial that people also take the activism offline and get involved in their communities to help put an end to sexual violence. Data from the National Sexual Violence Resource Center (NSVRC) shows that one in five women will be raped in her lifetime, and according to the Rape, Abuse and Incest National Network (RAINN), an American is sexually assaulted every 73 seconds. Considering sexual assault is the most underreported crime, NSVRC points out, those numbers could be even higher.
Whether it means donating to a local womanās shelter, making sure that movements like #MeToo andTimes Up donāt fizzle out, or by ensuring that survivors feel they are being heard when they decide to come forward, there are plenty of ways you can help survivors right now.ā

āWhen people hear āsexualā harassment, they often think the behavior has to be related to sexual activity, but thatās only part of it. Sexual harassment has a few different elements: -Sexual harassment involves words, conduct, or actions that are sexual in nature, or which are connected to a person or groupās sex, gender, gender expression, sexual orientation, or any other gender-related characteristic, AND which have the purpose or effect of demeaning, degrading, or distressing another person, unreasonably interfering with someoneās work performance, or contributing to an intimidating, offensive, or hostile work environment. So If your coworker is telling you that you shouldnāt wear a particular type of clothing because itās too feminine or masculine, or if theyāre making fun of gay or trans people, or saying that girls and women donāt belong in a particular profession, AND them doing that makes you feel uncomfortable, unable to focus at work, or like you arenāt welcome in that workplace, it might constitute what we call a āhostile work environment.ā - Sexual harassment also refers to quid pro quo sexual harassment, which involves the offer of improved treatment or other work-related reward in exchange for engaging in sexual behavior, the threat of poor treatment or work-related consequences for refusing to engage in sexual behavior, and other implicit or explicit work-related sexual coercion. For example: if a boss promises you a raise, says you can get better shifts, or tells you that you can have a job if you engage in sexual conduct with them, or if they say youāll get fired or they will otherwise treat you badly at work if you donāt do it, then that might be a quid pro quo situation.ā
ā Sexual Harassment in Your Workplace: What to Know, and What You Can Do (via hellyeahscarleteen)
āItās estimated that 1 in 4 women in the US, age of 18 and older will experience severe physical violence by an intimate partner in their lifetime and while it affects men as well, the numbers clearly show that itās a more prevalent woman issue. I want those statistics to change. I hope that telling my story may help prevent more stories like mine from happening.ā Melissa Benoist shares her hertbraking story of IPV.
She's a superhero on screen and off. This is a topic all too common that doesn't get enough press.
Believe women.
Believe survivors.
Believe people.
i deserve to feel safe. you deserve to feel safe. everyone has a fundamental right to feel safe. no matter what youāve gone through, you deserve to feel safe.
ā ļø RED ALERT: An unprecedented 17 states filed six-week abortion bans this year... ā ļø
More than *300* abortion restrictions have been introduced since JANUARY.
Tell lawmakers to STOP using six-week abortion bans to make YOUR choices for you ā add your name here!
A lot of the lgbtq+ community is centered around a feeling of community, closeness, and openness about our sexuality and experiences. However, saying no is an important ability to have. Itās not always easy, but remember to respect your own boundaries, check in with yourself, and make sure youāre comfortable with whatās happening! Practice self care and have a great day āŗļø
Weāre banding together ā quite literally ā for abortion access.
Artists and musicians are stepping up and standing with Planned Parenthood to protest the extreme abortion bans sweeping the country and the attacks on our fundamental right to make decisions about our bodies. From commitments to boycott filming in Georgia, to generous donations from their tours being given to Planned Parenthood, to signing an ad against the abortion bans, these artists are challenging abortion stigma and helping change the conversation about abortion.Ā
And together, weāre sharing our stories, reclaiming our bodies, and owning our power.
As summer comes to a close, here are some of the artists on our end-of-summer playlist whoāve stood up and spoken out to say: get your #BansOffMyBody:
1. Lizzo
Owning your body = good as hell. And we agree with Lizzo 110%: weāre capable of making our own decisions about our bodies.Ā At this yearās VMAs, Lizzo rocked a necklace by Sophie Ratner that reads āBans Off.ā

2. Dua Lipa
We got new rules and theyāre all about protecting access to abortion. Shout out to Dua Lipa for showing up for the millions of people whose rights are under attack.Ā
3. Sia
Itās not just abortion thatās under attack, itās all sexual and reproductive health care. But together, we are a movement and we are unstoppable.Ā
4. Hayley Kiyoko
Girls like girls ā and abortion access too, itās nothing new. Hayley Kiyoko joined nearly 140 artists and musicians who stood up for abortion access.
5. Paulina Rubio
Our bodies are our own. If they are not, we can not be truly free. Or equal.Ā
6. John LegendĀ
All of us at Planned Parenthood will continue to provide health care for all of you. Thanks, John Legend, for speaking up for our rights!
7. The NationalĀ
Weāre in no mood to have our rights be taken away. No way in hell. The National is banding together with us to stand up for abortion access.
8. Bon Iver
When it comes to securing access to abortion for everyone, weāre not out of the woods yet. But weāre one step closer, thanks to Bon Iver and thousands of others, who are standing up to say Bans Off My Body.Ā
9. Billie Eilish
āIām proud to be standing up for Planned Parenthood as they fight for fair and equal access to reproductive rights. We cannot live freely and move fully in the world when our basic right to access the reproductive health care we need is under attack. Every person deserves the right to control their body, their life, and their future."Ā
We all know the real bad guy is anyone who thinks they can make decisions about your body for you.
10. Ariana Grande
So grateful for artists like Ariana who are stepping up and spreading their generosity for Planned Parenthood and abortion funds. Weāre not letting up in the fight to protect abortion access; we gotta keep breathinā and breathinā and continue to fight back.Ā
11. Selena Gomez
We agree with Selena: stop telling us what to do with our bodies.

Shame on Brian Kemp.
The most underrated scene of Sex Education.
Sometimes it may seem like everybody at your school is doinā it, but thatās usually not true. Only about half of high school students have ever had vaginal sex, and the average age when people have sex for the first time is about 18. And most teens who have had sex donāt do it very often. So itās okay to wait to have sex until your and your partner both feel ready.

āWhoreā
I was only 9 years old when I heard the word āwhoreā for the first time in my life. I never knew what it meant but father was drunk that night and he kept shouting and ponding his fist on the table āwhoreā he shouts, I was so scared that I didnāt notice he was pointing his finger at me āwhoreā he sounded so angry I couldnāt move, I saw him making his way towards me tripping and leaning on the wall to keep his balance āwhoreā youāre scaring me father please donāt touch me there, youāre making me uncomfortable āwhoreā his eye looked inhuman, full of rage āwhoreā he shouts ājust like your motherā his hands were under my nightgown, what is he doing? please make it stop it hurts.
āWhoreā
The word keeps ringing in my head like a bell. Mother told me when a girl bleeds from down there it means sheās grown up. But why does it hurt so bad? Is this how girls grow up?
āWhoreā
The word still rattles in my head like the sound of my motherās keys, sheās finally home after her night shift, why is she so alarmed to see me? Maybe itās because Iām still laying on the living room floor just how father left me, unable to move.
āWhoreā
The word keeps ringing in my head like the sound of the sirens from the ambulance my mom had called but why is she crying? Mother I grew up, though it felt wrong and I didnāt like it at all. Mother, you never told me that Iāll have to go to hospital and get stitches down there, I donāt like growing up.
āWhoreā
The word comes back swarming back into my mind whenever you mention father, telling me that the police got him and that Iām never gonna see him again, I have lost count of the times youāve apologized to me, mother, please stop crying.
Iām 27 years old now, but even now whenever someone jokingly, or while Iām walking on the street calls me a āwhoreā it takes me back to day I heard it for the first time.
āMahin Ismail, every word has a history.
