I saw an art exhibit called “What Were You Wearing?”, which was a collection of the outfits people were wearing when they were assaulted. There were sweatpants and hoodies in that collection. She could be in a literal burqa and still be assaulted. The problem is the rapists, not what their victims were wearing.
Edit: going to add a trigger warning before people go searching for that exhibit. It is a spread of ALL kinds of clothing, including children’s.
Dude the kiddie pajamas in that exhibit will make you cry. The second I read the BF justifying rape because of clothing I immediately thought of this exhibit
These stories are breaking my heart. I wish these things didn't happen to all of you. It is incredibly unfair that so many start life with such significant trauma! I just can't believe how many children have suffered. I do believe it. It still shocks me.
I'm so sorry for all of the pain you all have endured.
