Gisele Pelicot has been through unimaginable horrors. And she’s not only facing them head on - she’s forcing others to LOOK at what happened to her.
She’s saying - proudly and without shame - that women are not the ones who should feel bad. We’ve done nothing wrong. The MEN should feel ashamed.
Whenever I read about her trial and think about the courage it must take to watch those videos and face those men every single day - I’m in awe of her.
I hope this marks a shift in how we discuss sexual assault. I hope we will stop blaming and shaming the victims and instead hold the perpetrators accountable. Demand better behaviour. It’s TIME.
