The story we've just relayed is unique, and yet it is so common with sexual violence being a global pandemic.But it doesn't have to be that way.One of the things that I found useful on my own healing journey is educating myself about sexual violence.And as a result, I've been reading, writing and speaking about this issue for over a decade now,going to conferences around the world.And in my experience, the attendees of such events are almost exclusively women.But it's about time that we stop treating sexual violence as a women's issue.A majority of sexual violence against women and men is perpetrated by men.And yet their voices are sorely underrepresented in this discussion. But all of us are needed here.Just imagine all the suffering we could alleviate if we dared to face this issue together. Thank you.
