As a guy I'm embarrassed that this is so necessary.

I'm so very very sorry that some men out there feel like it's okay to control someone for any reason, for any purpose, against their will.

I wish you all the best, now, and in the future.

Thank you. Feel digitally hugged. :)

As we Irish folks tend to say: "Won't you be worrying, love" :)

and it is a minority of men who are the problem, but they are enabled

That may be. The problem is that they exist in sufficient numbers to sway the general opinion.

There will always be "evil" people in the world. So eliminating them entirely is extremely unlikely. But reducing their numbers, and their ability to impact others, is going to be the key.

We need everyone to feel safe to go outside.
