Få proportionerne på plads i debatten om seksualiseret vold

This article is about gendered violence. The main point is that we seem overly fascinated by (and fearful of) extreme gendered and sexual violence and danger posed by strangers. However, sensationalist coverage of such violence is utterly out of proportion. Most gendered and sexual violence happens at the hands of partners, family, friends, people we know, and caretakers. If we really want to protect ourselves and our loved ones, we should be making much more concerted efforts to talk about, identify, and address everyday and normalized forms of gendered (and other) violence.

DK - artiklen omhandler seksualiseret og kønnet vold. Jeg udfordrer fascinationen med og fokus på ekstreme vold fra fremmede, hvor fokus på daglig, hverdags vold og undertrykkelse overses eller kommer til, at blive set som mindre alvorligt.
