Violée à 15 ans par son entraîneur, la patineuse brise l'omerta. " Vous étiez mon entraîneur. Je venais d'avoir quinze ans. Et vous m'avez violée. Il aura fallu trente ans pour que ma colère cachée se transforme enfin en cri public. Vous avez détruit ma vie, monsieur O., pendant que vous meniez tranquillement la vôtre. Aujourd'hui, je veux balayer ma honte, la faire changer de camp. Mais je veux aussi dénoncer le monde sportif qui vous a protégé, et vous protège encore à l'heure où j'écris ces lignes. Quand j'ai voulu parler, à plusieurs reprises, je n'ai pas pu le faire.

Un imprenditore multimilionario, con il tocco di re Mida quando si tratta di portare al successo innovative startup digitali, viene arrestato per reati che vanno dalla violenza sessuale al sequestro di persona, dalle lesioni allo spaccio di droga, compiuti in un attico nel centro di Milano o in una villa di Ibiza, teatro di feste sfrenate a cui partecipavano vip dello spettacolo, professionisti affermati, celebrità assortite e modelle giovanissime.

In 1977, Bonnie Robichaud accepted a job at the Department of Defence military base in North Bay, Ontario. After a string of dead-end jobs, with five young children at home, Robichaud was ecstatic to have found a unionized job with steady pay, benefits, and vacation time. After her supervisor began to sexually harass and intimidate her, her story could have followed the same course as countless women before her: endure, stay silent, and eventually quit. Instead, Robichaud filed a complaint after her probation period was up.

Die Geschichte eines tiefgreifenden Vertrauensbruchs: Eine "Zäsur in der Kirchengeschichte" - so bewertet der Historiker Thomas Großbölting den weltweiten sexuellen Missbrauch in der katholischen Kirche.

Detrás de muchos príncipes se esconden lobos feroces. Blancanieves se lanzó en brazos de un amor que creyó perfecto y que la acabó anulando; la Bella Durmiente cayó en un sueño forzado y, cuando despertó, había sufrido una violación; a Ariel le arrancaron una parte de su cuerpo bajo el pretexto de alcanzar la pureza; Caperucita fue a las fiestas de San Fermín y fue violada por cinco lobos, la Manada de Pamplona. Todos ellos son testimonios reales.

Disgrace is the first truly global history of sexual violence. The book explores how sexual violence varies widely across time and place, from nineteenth-century peasant women in Ireland who were abducted as a way of forcing marriage, to date-raped high-school students in twentieth-century America, and from girls and women violated by Russian soldiers in 1945 to Dalit women raped by men of higher castes today.

Drawing on examples from around the world—from Uganda, Nigeria and South Africa to Saudi Arabia, the Americas and Europe—Gqola traces the construction and machinations of the female fear factory by exposing its lies, myths and seductions. She shows how seemingly disparate effects like driving bans, higher education rape, sexual harassment and femicide are all premised on the construction of people, mostly women, as female, and thereafter the use of fear as a tool of patriarchal subjugation and punishment.

Denne bog handler om noget, som mange piger frygter, nemlig at blive bedøvet og voldtaget i forbindelse med en fest, en festival eller på et diskotek.

Cualquier niña o niño es víctima potencial de un abusador. El 80% de los casos de abusos sexuales infantiles se produce dentro de la familia. Si ya es complicado denunciar a un profesor y a veces tienen que pasar años, debe resultar mucho más difícil explicar que quien ha abusado de ti es el padre o el abuelo. Las víctimas de abusos sexuales necesitan hablar porque saben que de este modo pueden ayudar a otros y también ayudarse a sí mismos. Son voces que solo piden una cosa: que les escuchemos.

This collection of narrative essays by sex workers presents a crystal-clear rejoinder: There's never been a better time to fight for justice. Responding to the resurgence of the #MeToo movement in 2017, sex workers from across the industry - hookers and prostitutes, strippers and dancers, porn stars, cam models, Dommes and subs alike - complicate narratives of sexual harassment and violence, and expand conversations often limited to normative workplaces.

In the autumn of 1992, two young women students at Melbourne University went to the police claiming that they had been indecently assaulted at a party. The man they accused was the head of their co-ed residential college. The controversial book that Helen Garner wrote about the resulting Ormond College sexual harassment case caused a social media storm. Prominent feminists were outraged at Garner's perceived support for the man involved, but many saw her approach a necessary and much welcome nuance towards the power dynamic between men and women.

The Me Too movement, started by Black feminist Tarana Burke in 2006, went viral as a hashtag 11 years later after a tweet by White actor Alyssa Milano. Mainstream movements like #MeToo have often built on and coopted the work of women of color, while refusing to learn from them or center their concerns. Far too often, the message is not "Me, Too" but "Me, Not You". Me, Not You argues that the mainstream movement against sexual violence expresses a political whiteness that both reflects its demographics and limits its revolutionary potential.
