First there was #yesallwomen.
If that didn't make gender-based violence and misogyny in society clear enough for you, try the tumblr When Women Refuse.
More below the Tangerine Cloud.
Like #yesallwomen, this site gives women a place to talk about their experiences with refusing sex to men, refusing relationships with men, just refusing. That is, the women who are still alive to talk about it.
I know that this is going to be as controversial to write about here as #yesallwomen was. Probably even more so.
But, as has been said before: We know that all men are not like this. We know that we as women can be accused of being shrill, or however you want to say that we are complaining about something that has nothing to do with YOU as a man, we know all this.
BUT we also know that being afraid of men is part of our daily lives. And we are sick unto death of it. And "sick unto death" seems to be just fine with some men.
I wanted to share this tumblr with you here because it's another view not always taken into account. And it's a way to honor a lost friend.
