[...] Saturday the 6th of March was the Million Women Rise march. Scheduled the closest weekend to International Women’s Day, Million Women Rise brings together women from all over the country to march against violence against women – domestic and sexual abuse. For more on my thoughts on why it’s important for women to stand up agains VAW, and why it does require a different approach than violence against men, by men, see here. [...]

A well-written and thought-provoking article, Hannah.

I despair for my gender sometimes, I really do. I was out in town with Jodie this evening when a drunken guy ran at us with his shirt off, ostensibly trying to dry-hump my leg. I have no idea why.

It’s a funny old world.

Thank you for trying to change things for the better. And for acknowledging that not all men are quite as bad as some .

Hannah,

Thank you for writing this – this is one of the most comprehensive and well-written pieces I have seen on this issue in a long time and I applaud you for writing it.

I only wish I was close enough to London (and had the £) to attend the protest myself as this is an issue I feel strongly about. I will look forward to your tweets and posts about the event itself with anticipation.

Kim

Claire, thanks so much for your comment. I hope standing up and fighting at RTN helps you continue along the road to recover, all my best, Hannah.

I came across your blog via a Twitter contact, and I felt I had to leave a comment to thank you for so clearly articulating the reasons why I, as a woman and a feminist, will also be attending the Reclaim The Night march on the 21st. And as rape survivor, I will be there as part of my long, slow, painful recovery – I feel, as you also do, that it is crucial to keep on challenging male violence and, for me, an important part of this (and an important part of the healing process) is getting out there are making our voices heard.

Thank you for posting this
