A Toronto policeman’s less-than-thoughtful comment to a group of school kids that “women should avoid dressing like sluts in order not to be victimised” has lead to worldwide protests. You can read more about it here and here.
In Australia, “Slutwalks” are being held in both Adelaide and Sydney and there are plans for others in other cities around the country.
It’s time we do something about victim-blaming and put the focus back onto who is really at fault.
