@justinevdl: If you’re curious to learn more about criminalized survival, I spent 7 years interviewing women in prison and writing a book about this phenomenon — and their incredible stories of survival. My book Unreasonable Women is available now. . . . Criminalized survival. #prison #truecrime #misogyny #patriarchy #femalerage

Pat from Canada :
Is this related to why rape victims are subjected to interrogation closely resembling military tactics when testifying? Why it is allowed - Because they had the nerve to survive and speak up? It's not unheard of for them to go on for days/weeks and having her relive a traumatic experience while subjected to rapid fire, unrelenting questions. No other crime victim goes through this.

But it doesn't explain why men get extremely short sentences for murdering their female partners

Like the baby girl in the news, that’s 14 being raped and kidnapped by her dad, but is labeled as the criminal.

In the uk we have a defence to murder called ‘loss of self control’ which was brought in for cases like this, there must be a ‘qualifying trigger’ which can be fear of serious violence

Even when a woman kills their spouse bc it was imminent, the law is unforgiving

And even then!! Keisha Golden stabbed her attacker in the leg after he slammed her head on the counter at 8 mos pregnant!! And she’s being charged with Murder 1.

Laws were written by men for men. We need it to be more inclusive.

So in order for a woman to be able to claim self defense she needs to 🪦 her partner while actively getting the shit beat out of her??? 😳 that is CRAZY.

Waiting for my verdict on defamation because I spoke up about my father abusing me during my whole childhood. Sadly, evidence doesn't really work for women either.

Especially when the judges & some of the prosecutors grew up during a time where it was a norm for women to be abused.

The law is written by men for men. We will suffer until a man has decided we have suffered enough- maybe until death. Then if the man is held accountable it will be up to men how much he will pay, and men gamble on that light punishment. Thats the game. If we come outside of that and end the game, they’re enraged.

I got two black eyes when I was pregnant but was denied a temp restraining order by the city hall clerk. I mentioned that I bit his inner wrist while his hands were around my throat and she said that makes it a mutual fight despite me being 5inches 50lbs and being 20 weeks pregnant

I literally have been slowly reading your book via audio book. literally crying and screaming in public about these women's stories. it is heartbreaking because it could BE ANY ONE OF US IN THEIR SHOES.
