If you don’t understand the journey from deeming someone “unrapable” to becoming a rapist, you don’t understand what happens to women in this nation of ours.
I’m struggling to imagine how a bunch of schoolboys might have thought this was OK. Here we are, just a few monthsThis is happening at a co-ed school. A school filled with kids on track to being MPs, to being our best and brightest, filled with boys who will do well in life. But I want you to think of the young women who were described by their male peers as “unrapable”.
The men who assault women leave behind a trail of destruction in our hospitals. Even during the peak COVID years, during, nine in 10 hospitalisations for assault injury by a partner nationally were for women – nearly 5000 all up. That’s nearly 14 women a day. And there may be as many as another 14 who will never tell anyone how they broke their arm, got their black eye, how their lips split.. OK, then. Whatever you call it, how men treat women matters. Respect. Decency.
