Violence Against Women - Tumblr Posts
just please give it a minute and read this‼️🚨
Hey guys i know this is goint to be different than my usual content but i always speak up or do whatever i can to help people all around the world. And I want your help this time.
This might be triggering for some people and i'm sorry in advance but please read the whole thing and help me raise my voice and the women of my country's to make this matter known so that the government would start taking us seriously and start taking measures for women's safety.
I’m Turkish and I live in Turkey. I couldn’t be more proud to be Turkish but the government (which they’ve been on power for like 25 years) destroyed our country by doing everything they can. No people in Turkey has a safety right now especially women and children. Why am I telling you all of this? Because they’re releasing the criminals and corrupted our legal and justice system. For the couple of days a woman sexually assaulted by two men and caught by cameras and they released them. But after people started to post this in X they put them in jail back. We’re trying to make justice from social media.
Yesterday, 2 women were brutally murdered by the same man at Edirnekapı, Istanbul. The murderer first killed Ayşenur (19) in his home and called the cops to report the murder then, he went to kill İkbal (19). Semih Çelik murdered those two 19 YEAR OLD girls, İkbal Uzuner and Ayşenur Halil. He slit Ayşenur's throat and dismembered İkbal Uzuner on top of the city walls and he THREW İKBAL'S HEAD IN FRONT OF HER MOTHER. He then committed suicide by jumping from the very same place he dismembered İkbal. And he did all this IN BROAD DAYLIGHT.
He had been stalking İkbal for over a year, his own father had reported him several times, a disturbing drawing made by him and a video of him filmed last year talking about how he wanted to kill İkbal (quoting the exact words from the video: "...The day you saw me, I had come to kill you. I wanted to take a life with me when I left this life, and it was more valuable for me if that person was you. To cut out your heart, your eyes…") were uncovered recently but NO MEASURES WERE TAKEN. That psychopath took two innocent lives and the only thing that the government did was to impose a broadcast ban.
So as a woman who is afraid, i am asking you to spread this and to make this known. We, turkish women, hope that making this matter known globally will help us.
This hashtag #turkishwomenareindanger is also used in X and if you want to see what have been going through for the years you can look up to it and please look up.
The things I’m trying say this with all of that. There’s no justice in our country. There are very dangerous and a lot of groups that hating women and trying to normalize this. I’m talking about normalizing RAPE/CHILD PORN/WOMEN HOMOCIDES/ THREATS/BLACKMAIL/ VIOLENCE and everything related to them.
Why do we need help to raise our voices?
>In 2021, Turkey became the first and only country to withdraw from the Istanbul Convention, a human rights treaty of the Council of Europe opposing violence against women.
>Women's complaints are not taken seriously, and offenders are repeatedly let go without any consequences. Our prisons are filled to the brim with journalists and political prisoners, however repeat sexual offenders, abusers, p3d0philes and murderers are released.
So this means, even if that murderer did not commit suicide he might've not been punished properly for his crimes.

X, formerly known as Twitter post states: Israel Finance Minister says he agrees with every word in this column: that women in Gaza are part of the Hamas infrastructure (by having babies) and must be destroyed using severe epidemics (source: @ MacaesBruno). Originally posted: November 20th, 2023.
This is a genocidal mentality that advocates for the mass and forced sterilization of Palestinian women via their deaths... I am beyond enraged. For ANY feminist still being quiet while so many people (women, children, the elderly, disabled folks) continue to be disproportionately targeted in Gaza by imperial and settler-colonial military forces and powers... ya'll are also equally complicit.
Everything the IOF has done for decades now is truly one abomination after the other.
Excerpt from my story
"I can't believe you kept this a secret! How long has this been going on?"
...
"I-I think since I got out of the hospital."
"Are you freaking kidding right now? I'm going to kill him!"
"Lia, you're barely over three feet."
"I'm serious."
"Sorry if you're the last one knowing when it starts raining, but..."
"How can you not care?"
"I guess I got used to it."
"You can't just got used to it, you can't get used to someone who treats you like crap."
"Then what should I do, huh? Don't you think I tried to escape? I'm scared! Life isn't always perfect, I stopped looking for my knight in shining armor a long time ago, I can't wait for him to save me, so I got to save myself and I'm doing that by trying not to get myself in trouble, in a hospital or worse. You have to accept that."
~I couldn't accept that, I couldn't accept that my best friend's life was a mess and I wasn't able to do anything to make it better, I felt useless, the only thing I could do was hug her...no words needed, words are overrated, in that hug were trapped reassurance and thoughts, thoughts we couldn't turn into words cause the tears has taken over, surprisingly they weren't mine...Cecilia was crying, probably for the first time in front of somebody else, again, I felt useless but we stayed like that for long, 'till she wiped her tears away and with a big smile on her face she told me:
"It was a full day, let's eat something."
And we walked away.~
New research conducted by Amnesty International shows that women and girl refugees face violence, assault, exploitation and sexual harassment at every stage of their journey, including on European soil.

In Bnei Brak, an Israeli city whose population is mostly ultra-orthodox, there is a disturbing phenomenon - advertising signs with images of women on them are being ripped by ultra-orthodox men who believes that women should only be shown dressed modestly enough. The sleeves must cover the elbows, skirts must hide the knees and hair should be hidden as well.
The Israeli advertising agency “Twisted" decided to use that habit, and created a poster that hides another poster under it. 24 hours after the sign was hanged, the picture of the model was ripped and the message was exposed:
International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women 25.11.13

Because women in sudan are in danger of infections that can lead to cancers, infertility, spreading of vaginal infections to blood and near by organs, and because this can cause DEATH, with the poor feminine hygiene under siege [@/ adeela_mu on X. 12/25/23.]
OPEN LETTER TO UN WOMEN
UN Women has abandoned their mission to advocate for girls’ and women’s rights and equality. Join our United Women for Women’s Rights campaign: sign on to our open letter and let UN Women know that vilifying women who know that men are not women is incompatible with protecting girls’ and women’s rights.
In a classic DARVO move (“deny, attack and reverse victim and offender”), the recently published statement by UN Women, “LGBTIQ+ Communities and the Anti-Rights Resistance”, accuses those who do not believe in gender identity ideology of hate speech. But the accusations made by UN Women throughout the text are false and detrimental to children and teenagers, women, lesbians and gays, by labeling as hateful the healthy and entirely reasonable questioning of a new ideology that subverts women’s rights
Women! We must sign this letter to UN Women and let them know unequivocally that women will not stand for UN Women advocating for trans-identified males over WOMEN and GIRLS' sex-based rights will not be tolerated!
Sign the open letter HERE
London — 19-year-old student Sarah Buckle was out clubbing with her friends when something went terribly wrong.
Her friends took her to the hospital, where she woke up the next morning with no memory of what had happened the night before. Her hand was throbbing, and a bruise was developing with what looked like a needle prick in the middle.
