Women say they share stories of abuse to highlight the issue, despite social pressure and safety fears. #SexualViolence #WomensRights #Iraq
The author praised the piece, saying it clearly explained why Parkrun’s prioritisation of including men in the women’s category was, in their view, unfair and not inclusive of women.

Around the world, women & girls continue to face discrimination, violence & abuse. Their rights are rolled back, their voices silenced, their bodies turned into battlegrounds & their freedoms treated as bargaining chips. This is an outrage & a profound waste for humanity. https://t.co/vDUOeYSQ90 #WomensRights #EndViolence #GenderEquality #Nospecificcountrycodescanbeidentifiedinthetweetprovided.

As I was saying…this is effed up. And won’t stand the test of the shortest of time. The people making these decision and rules are delusional and need to find another hobby. Taking away girls and women’s right to privacy is not it. #WomensRights #PrivacyMatters #DelusionalDecisionMakers #Nospecificcountrycodesidentifiedinthetweet.

A successful for whom??? Certainly a success for the men who identify into the female prison population. Not so much of a success for the actual women… #GenderEquality #WomensRights #TransIssues #Thetweetdoesnotmentionanyspecificcountries.Therefore #theresponseis:
You can treat trans people with dignity while defending women’s sex-based rights. You can believe adults should live however they choose while opposing the medicalisation of children. Those positions aren’t contradictory. They’re what a liberal middle ground looks like. #TransRights #WomensRights #LiberalDialogue #Nospecificcountrycodesarepresentinthetweet.
