keep yourself out of any discussion of sexual violence please and btw shut the fuck up about false accusations if you’re super privileged too
only time I want to hear anybody talking about “false accusations” is if they are talking about racism or heterosexism, bc false accusations don’t stick if you have enough privilege, in fact even true accusations may not stick in those circumstances
thanks
As someone who grew up in a family full of sexual abuse survivors of both genders- Your request for men to excuse themselves from a discussion based solely on their gender is fucking ridiculous.
If my non-survivor father wants to talk about sexual violence, he can. He married a rape survivor, his brother in-laws are rape survivors, his sister-in law is a rape survivor, one of his sons and another young man he helped raise are rape survivors.
You have no right to ask him to excuse himself from a discussion that impacts him DEEPLY.
If my non-survivor brother wants to talk about sexual violence, he can. His mom is a rape survivor, two of his uncles were rape survivors, his aunt is a rape survivor, his brother is a rape survivor and the cousin he babysat weekly is a rape survivor.
You have no right to ask him to excuse himself from a discussion that impacts him DEEPLY.
If my non-survivor cousins, want to talk about sexual violence- they can. Their mother is a rape survivor, their uncles were rape survivors, their aunt was a rape survivor, and their cousins are rape survivors.
You have no right to ask them to excuse themselves from a discussion that impacts them DEEPLY.
And if you think attempting to silence the husbands, fathers, sons, cousins, nephews and brothers of male AND female victims is going to solve anything- you’re a fool.

Let me tell you something about today. Today was the hottest day of the year in New Jersey, I woke up sweating despite air conditioning because it was 95 degrees. Now, i did what any logical person would do and I put on my favorite pair of shorts so i wouldn’t be sweating throughout the day.
Even in my shorts i was sweating my balls off but I went through half of my day as normal, no boys stared at my ass or tried to grope me in public yet when i went to the the cafeteria a teacher told me to go to the office because he finds my shorts inappropriate. I head down to the office to find a group of girls wearing shorts and skirts sitting in a small room in the office, we where all ordered to call our parents or to change into the clothes they had offered us from the school store. These items of clothing included sweatpants and a large heavy sweatshirt. I obviously refused to wear those because it was 95 degrees and when you are sweating the key to cool down is NOT to put on more clothes. They told me I would have to stay in that room the whole day if it came down to it.
I was able to leave the office when my friend gave me a pair of yoga pants. The man who made me go down to the office brought down several other girls as I was leaving, at this point they didn’t care how long the shorts where they just sent everyone who was wearing a pair down. They warned me that if I put my shorts back on they would wright me up.
I put them back on anyway because just walking down the hallway in those yoga pants made me faint, dizzy,and extremely hot. Thats the main issue, it is hot enough for people to pass out in school but to the school system they would rather a girl suffer from a heat stroke then to have a boy become turned on. My shorts don’t say “COme fuck me in the middle of class” they say,”Its warm out”
The sexualizing of innocent students is not okay
Risking students health is not okay
and tHE LACK OF FEMINISM IN THE SCHOOL SYSTEM WILL NEVER BE OKAY
Today was literally horrible
I hate our school so much
“Those shorts are so totally inappropriate” said no logical person ever. -.-

Me and my head high
And my tears dry
Get on without my guy
You went back to what you knew
So far removed from all that we went through
And I tread a troubled track
My odds are stacked
I’ll go back to black
