#metoo

YThis hashtag. 2017. It speaks the story of thousands ten thousands of women's stories. Of being sexually threatened amd black mailed by men in power. Of young girls assaulted by older men. It's terrifying and so very true. #metoo.
Does this movement mean mote awareness now and perhaps feweer #metoo? Surely men in power are cringing right now. But notice no indian actress has said #metoo and its surely prevalent there too. These things take time to trickle down east. Here its normal to blame the woman far more than the man for the sake of "honour" and reputation.

But such mixed messages. Women scantily clad is normal. Women sexualised and often wanting to be sexualised as a result of the normalisation of sexualisation complicates matters. Biology plays a part too!
