If you wonder why I say fuck the patriarchy a million times a day:

Women are caught between a deadly virus outside & an abuser at home. What fucking world is this?

#COVIDー19 is a new global pandemic & we all fear it. Domestic abuse is an older global pandemic that many ignore
If that’s the world that you want to “go back to” when things are “back to normal” then FUCK THAT WORLD and fuck normal.

I don’t want “normal” when patriarchy is normal.

I don’t want a world where for so many women around the world, home is the most dangerous place.
Did you know how many women were killed every day by current or former partners? How many women were killed by men around the world?

The figures for #COVIDー19 are terrifying. Would you be terrified if every time a woman was killed or beaten by a man, you would hear about it?
