2/Women’s bodies are found in cars. In rivers. Hidden somewhere by their men. Their children orphaned. How come we refuse to talk about DV?

This comment was posted by a guy on Pranit’s apology video, but Pranit deleted it probably because he felt it was exposing him. The guy actually made a very valid point. #pranitmore

SHAMEFUL 🚨 Comedian Madhur Virli crosses all limits. He makes fun of rape victims now. Strict action must be taken against him @DelhiPolice

#india you know when a regime has slid into major decay when the executive lead of a democratic nation does nothing but disappear from the country twice a week watching women dance for him in other states.

Women are not naturally submissive. They are naturally dominating. It is Shiva who lays down flat under Shakti, to hold space and hold balance. When natural order is inverted, ecology collapses. Women must always remember their independent power.

Her name is Subhasini Mistry. She was married at the age of twelve. By the time she was around twenty-three, her husband Sadhan Chandra, a vegetable vendor near Kolkata, had died from a treatable illness. The family could not afford medical care. She was left with four children, no formal education and almost no money. In the months that followed, the family slipped into extreme poverty. At one point, she had to place her eldest son in an orphanage because she could not feed him. After her husband’s death, she made a promise to herself. No one else in her village would die because they were too poor to afford treatment. For a woman who could not read or write, it seemed impossible. But she started anyway. She worked as a domestic servant. She worked as a farm labourer. She sold vegetables on the roadside, the same work her husband had done. For nearly twenty years, she saved whatever she could. Part of that money went toward educating her son Ajoy. He eventually became a doctor. With her savings, she bought a small plot of land in Hanspukur. In the 1990s, with her son treating patients and villagers contributing whatever they could, she opened a small medical centre there. They called it Humanity Hospital. It began in a single room. Today, it has dozens of beds and treats hundreds of patients every week, many of them free of charge. In 2018, the woman who had never received a formal education was awarded the Padma Shri by the President of India. She could not save her husband. So she spent the next four decades helping thousands of other families save theirs. Follow for stories India deserves to remember.

History will remember who stood with Afghan women, who ignored us, and who tried to silence and erase us from society. Among Afghan women too, we will never forget those who stood by our side — your solidarity is written in our hearts. 🥰 women life freedom 🌿 @hildevautmans @AbirAlsahlani Thank you for your talk. Please continue talk and solidarity 🙏😍

This is who young Indian men have become. Beyond redeemable.

Anyone who justifies the Taliban is morally corrupt and intellectually dead. They’ve systematically erased women from public life, first banning education, now imprisoning them simply for existing outside. In Herat, men & women protested Taliban barbarism & were met with bullets.

There was also the biggest protest for women this morning in Afghanistan we’ve seen in years, and the media hasn’t posted anything about it.

This article in todays Sydney Morning Herald @smh by @melfyfe and carla hildebrandt is one of the most important domestic violence articles I have read in a very long time. Professor Heather Douglas is calling for Australia to recognise what some experts describe as "slow femicide" — women who die by suicide after years of domestic violence, coercive control, intimidation, terror and abuse. Around 15 Australian women die by suicide every week. Research suggests that between a quarter and a half have experienced domestic or family violence. The question is simple: if years of abuse drive a woman to take her own life, why do we stop talking about the abuse? In 2010, after extreme domestic violence where i was nearly killed and severe trauma, I attempted suicide. I spent a week in a coma at Royal North Shore Hospital and was left with a hypoxic brain injury that affected my memory for years and still affects me today. My suicide was not a cry for help i wanted to die and was angry that I'd been saved. But there is another part of this conversation we rarely have. What about the women who don't die? What about the women who survive and have to live with the consequences? People assume surviving is the happy ending. It isn't always. I was in far worse condition after my suicide attempt than before it. I woke up with a brain injury, severe psychological trauma and a life that had completely collapsed around me. I couldn't function properly. I couldn't work. I couldn't think clearly. I was an absolute shell of the person I had once been. My brain injury impacted me severely. Domestic violence doesn't just kill women. It leaves thousands more living with catastrophic physical, neurological, psychological and financial damage. We count the murders. We rarely count the suicides. And we almost never count the women who survive both. The aftermath of domestic violence and abuse is my focus now. It's time we started recognising the full toll of domestic violence in Australia.

A male doctor raped a patient who was a young girl, so the government is yelling at a bunch of women doctors

FURIOUS ABHIJEET ASKS THE REAL QUESTION 🔥 REPORTER: If the Education Minister does not resign, what next? ABHIJEET DIPKE 🎯: We will start the movement again. We will sit in protest again. REPORTER: But how will Pradhan’s resignation fix the system? ABHIJEET 🔥: The first step to fixing the system is accountability. In any private job, someone like this would have been fired by now. Only resignation. Nothing else.

This is a total betrayal…Do not even dare to speak on behalf of wounded women. An Afghan man, perfect English, telling you women in Afghanistan are fine. Just fine. Don't worry. This is not nuance. This is normalization. This is normalizing Taliban. Let’s women in Afghanistan talk. Women who have been flogged. Women who have been imprisoned. Women who have been denied an education. Women who have watched their lives disappear under gender apartheid. We the women of Iran have seen this movie before. Just watch the second video. An Iranian man, same perfect English, so relax, saying IRGC the terrorist organization that massacres protesters, and morality police are not that bad, they’re just fine and women if you don’t have fun with them! To every Afghan woman, every Iranian woman: Be louder than these men. Do not let anyone with microphones, normalize what is being done to your bodies, your lives, your freedom. @UAGApartheid

The ‘don’t protest, it’s no use’, ‘you’ll go to jail’, ‘you have destroyed your parents peace ’, ‘the govt is great’, ‘this is a big AAP/BJP/Cong/CIA/Chinese plot & they’re funding Abhijit, the ‘talk down & cutdown’ happening indicates the rotting state of the establishment mind

India's biggest problem is not Modi. It is not Rahul Gandhi. It is not Muslims. It is a population that knows Virat Kohli's average, Salman Khan's net worth, Ranbir's relationships, and every Elvish Yadav controversy. But don't know their MLA, their MP, or what they're actually doing with their vote.

#cjp_पार्टी X is full of sanghis rubbishing the CJP protest at JANTAR MANTAR in Delhi. Unbelievable that exam leaks, papers for sale, 83 gang rapes/day, candidate suicide, building & road infrastructure crumbling & a failing rupee is ok? They’re upset by a satirical movement!

The habits of conformity. Which is why India is that situation today

Troll from the wreaked, scared Vishwaguru crowd
