The man who was challenged by a woman in the female toilets, got angry and shot her dead, has been finally arrested yesterday, I've been told. This happened in Brazil. The woman was in a restaurante with her husband and kids, he was there with his wife and kids. He went to the 1/
female toilet for "reasons", she challenged him, he "got angry", left his family in the restaurant, went home, got a gun, came back to the restaurant and shot the woman who challenged him in the female toilet. For "reasons" (like challenging his presence in the female toilet). 2/
Brazilian media was informed that this man, who shot a woman 3 times (1 of them in the head), killing her, already had a criminal record. This was another femicide. This was male violence against a woman. A violent man was free to commit violence. Now another woman is dead. End/

Would I be too far off if I said: "when a person is experiencing coercive control from a partner/relative/"friend", if they tell their abusers what coercive control is, the abusers will use their new found knowledge of coercive control to further the abuse"? It feels like it.
I want to say something very uncontroversial: abuse is very abusive. It drains the life of the abused, the abused becomes a shred of what they could become. I have no time for abusers. I cut them off my life and say "no" to them.
Very few people care about women and girls. We complain, we speak out, we fight against female discrimination, but very few people actually listen to what women say. Today, I despair. It's very isolating. Yes, I'm in a very bleak mood.

Men can't breastfeed because men can't produce breastmilk. There's a protocol with a cocktail of drugs for nausea and schizophrenia that may lead to a condition called galactorrhea, which may produce a "milky-like" nipple discharge, but it's not breastmilk. 1/
@ChardHollis @AllieIacob @mzmysterie When is the case (milky-like nipple discharge outside pregnant/gestation in women) is not breastmilk either but women may indeed and eventually produce breastmilk when galactorrhea is induced because women's breasts have lobules, which men don't.
@ChardHollis @AllieIacob @mzmysterie Another problem is that you are spreading ill-informed concepts such as the "nipple discharge that men can produce after inducing galactorrhea is indeed breastmilk and as nutritional as breastmilk" produced by a woman who gestated and gave birth.

I'd like to bring you a perspective on this from a Brazilian woman. In Portuguese, mother is "mãe", and father is "pai". We live in such a sexist society that the very rare fathers who raise their kids solo adopt for themselves the word "pãe" - a "father who is a mother". 1/
Brazilian women have criticized the term for the obvious reasons. A father is not a mother because he is raising his children solo. He is a father, who is raising his children. Kudos for them. However we must point out the millions of Brazilian children who have never even had 2/
The name of their biological fathers in their birth certificate, simply because their biological fathers refused to register their own children, in order to not take responsibility in raising them, like paying alimony. Apart from them, most parents raising kids solo are women 3/

Many men tell me that being sexually abused as a child should not define me. In reflection, I realised that the abuse didn't actually define me. I did wait until I was 19 to start having sexual intercourse. However, the sexual abuse was not the main factor for waiting. 1/
I didn't wait bc I was traumatised. Or bc I became shy after abuse. I waited for the same reason I didn't go into prostitution, like at least 2 of the girls who were abused by the same men did. I waited because I was poor. I waited bc only 2 of the girls abused didn't become 2/
Teen mothers. I waited bc I knew I could get pregnant and would have to drop out of school. Bc we were poor. For poor girls in the countryside in Brazil, in the 1990s, if you get pregnant, you took the pregnancy to term. Bc there's no stigma you can escape. Teen mother was not 3/

Last night, I came home from Filia. At Brussels airport, me and a female companion took the train. Two men didn't have coins to buy the train ticket, so they asked for help. They gave money to my friend and she paid for the tickets. On train platform,they stayed away from us.
Left train, took subway. Friend left 2 stops before me, but I got out with her. We waited together for the next one. But when I got in for 2 more stations only, a homeless man came in. He saw me and stopped in front of me. He asked for money, but I didn't have any. He got angry!
And started calling me names. I got up and rushed to one of the doors. My station arrived and I got out, praying that he would not get off the car. On next platform, a drunk man stops in front of me and again I move away to find women to be around. When my next metro arrives...
