I am behind #pizzagate 100%. I know #HumanTrafficking happens and I know #Rape and #Torture also happens.
But can we please stop crucifying every single person that ever made a reference to #pizza or every company that has a #spiral on their logo?
2-Not everybody knows about those connections. & it doesn't mean everybody is complicit.
Guys, we need a little more solid evidence other than somebody just posting a picture of themselves on a night out with friends.
I am 100% behind #pizzagate. but at times, it gets ridiculous
3-That being said, who the fuck thought it was a good idea to have pageants for kids that can't barely say their names? How the fuck is not this child abuse?

When I see stuff like this, this is actually what I see 👇Sexualized kids to please #pedophiles

He presumably went on living the privileged life to which he was entitled. She repressed the memory and fled the city with her secret scars as soon as she could, never to return. @MeTooMVMT @AustinLinked @FeministAction @AustinTX_NOW @NotOnMyCampusUT @timesupnow #rapemustend
She was able to avoid being alone with him after that, but was too broken and ashamed to tell anyone. @Adoption_Austin @MeTooMVMT @AustinLinked @FeministAction @AustinTXNOW @NotOnMyCampusUT @acltv #rapemustend #rape #metoo #timesup
Afterward he told her that it had been his intention to impregnate her so that she would love him. @Adoption_Austin @MeTooMVMT @statesman @AustinLinked @FeministAction @AustinTXNOW @NotOnMyCampusUT #dna #rapemustend #rape #metoo #timesup

No evidence: the drug wore off, he used a condom, she woke up confused and drove home after the humiliating conversation. They were friendly the day before and she accepted his offer to stay over instead of taking the road so late. No witnesses. The perfect #crime. #FicFri
Overdose survived. She flirted with him until he invited her over again. She denied him nothing in bed, she was #obsequious. “I’ve got a surprise”, she said, and massaged his feet as he sipped the wine she gave him. He died of sepsis a week later. #vss365 #AmWriting
“He committed #treason against the sacred dojo. He disgraced the sport”, they said. “Perhaps. I am still going to the cremation ceremony. We must protect our art and not speak ill of a dead coach”, she said. “If he has a #soul, it will burn in hell”, they said. #FP #FridayKiss

Hilary Holiday @mplshilary Tweeted a while back about a friend of hers being raped.

It was me.

Out of respect for me she did not out him but provided his info privately to whomever wanted to know.

After some therapy and healing I'm ready to out him.
The man who raped me is Sumeet Dham. He works at Boston Scientific. He has a family. He practices Hinduism.
There was no sign over his head stating "rapist". He even had a reference I verified.

He spit on my face while he raped me.
He tried to touch and console me.
He told me afterward "forgiveness is important."
I placated him and was very sweet to him to get him to leave without things escalating to violence. That's what survival instincts do.

@SurvivorsnetBtn @RASASC_London @survivorstrust @Danvers07943910 @ObjectUK @BrightonSurvivorsNET “In the light of a highly disturbing increase of #transphobia locally & nationally…” IF everything anybody says or does is #transphobia, of course you can say it is rising. Any reputable statistics?
@SurvivorsnetBtn @RASASC_London @survivorstrust @Danvers07943910 @ObjectUK “…so the date @Womans_Place_UK event feels like a concerted effort to make #trans ppl, & particularly #transwomen, feel #intimidated and #invalidated” Is it the position of SN that the sensitivities of #transwomen mean that #democracy should be suspended any time they say so?
@SurvivorsnetBtn @RASASC_London @survivorstrust @Danvers07943910 @ObjectUK @Womans_Place_UK #Transwomen do face special challenges but they remain #bio #logical #males but it is fine for them #Gender express as ‘women’ but with the best will in the world, they remain #bio #logically #male @WomenEqualities @Commonswomequ @PennyMordaunt @MariaMillerUK @LesleySemmens

Most men that I know, men who respect women as equals, are shocked when allegations come out about people like #HarveyWeinstein, #BillCosby, #LouisCK. They are in shock when men they know are accused of sexually harassing or assaulting women. THREAD 1 #BelieveWomen #RWU #MeToo
Some men find it very hard to believe that these things are so common, because they would never DO those things. If I were a man and I hadn’t experienced harassment and inappropriate behavior multiple times, I would probably find it difficult to believe. 2 #MeToo #BelieveHer
I decided to share about what I’ve experienced, so that good men who respect women can start to understand that these things happen to women know they know, work with, are related to, and love, every day. Their friends, neighbors, coworkers, relatives. 3 #sexualharassment

1) WHY WOMEN KEEP SILENT

So, I was raped when I was about four. It never occurred to me to say anything until I was about eleven.
2) At four, I didn't know what the term rape meant; I knew what had been done and that it wasn't right but who would I tell?? I was ashamed.
3) I remember thinking I'd be mortified if my parents ever found out I'd been a "participant" in this lewd act. God forbid they found out.
