1. What the unholy......

I'm not sure how, but this topic should be included in the #metoo movement. There needs to be a clear and paramount focus on the victims/survivors of sexual assault and harassment.......this should be clear. However, we need to really address the growing so-called incel phenomenon.
I feel like I rarely see/read anything about this in the news. Maybe when we talk about metoo and the violence of sexual assault, we can also talk about the deathly violence exacted upon women and girls by those that feel entitled to their bodies.
How did we go from " no means no", to, "if I can have you, no one will"?!?


Just a note: I realize that the once popular phrase," no means no", is problematic. I was just using it to make a point of contrast about how far we, society, have fallen.
