My heart’s broken for the children abused by the male early childhood educator. I’ve heard too many disclosures from tiny children w/ faces & voices of innocence sharing words of sexual violence. Thinking of the victims, their families & the ppl who painstakingly identified them

Even with everything we know about deep fakes we still hear from teen girls that adults are telling them, 'just don't take nudes'. We have to stop victim blaming girls #AskingForIt

I’m so glad #askingforit is raising awareness of the sexual assaults perpetrated against women in aged care

It breaks my heart that survivors like @SaxonAdair and Grace Tame still have to tell their horrific stories in the hope it will prevent rape happening to one more young person #askingforit

#AskingForIt
Fawning is a common trauma response, like fight, flight and freeze: it's a trauma response that happens automatically and instinctively as our brain tries to ensure our survival.

Lauren shows how easy it is to introduce the idea of power imbalances without alienating boys from the conversation about #consent #AskingForIt

On Monday night, we launched it into the world.
Tomorrow night, it'll be launched into your homes. My face will be on your screens once more, surrounded by other survivors, educators, and incredible people. 🧵

Every day I see the impact of the hate debate that’s had over trans bodies. I’m cis but trans folk are my partner, my child, my friends, my colleagues, and my clients.
This is bullying and too many beautiful people have been bullied to death.
Sending love to all who need it 🏳️⚧️

I was horrified by the actions of anti-trans event organisers and neo-Nazis over the weekend.
I appreciate the value of the transgender people at @bodysafetyau , in my family and in the schools and communities we work with.

I call on the Premier to respond to our request to meet and discuss a whole-community approach to combat the rise of these ideologies and behaviours. We also call on those within the sectors of gendered violence prevention to join us in calling for action.

Lastly, we call on all Australians to respond actively to this aggressive display by contacting your political representatives, engaging with our work, and having important discussions within your communities.
