“She was asking for it” A message heard all too often when it comes to sexual assault, harassment and rape around women. She wasn’t. She never is. No matter what she’s doing, wearing or saying no one deserves to be touched in a way that isn’t welcomed. She could be covered head to toe, she could be walking home in a skirt, she could be doing a handstand naked at a party – no matter what... She. Is. Still. Not. Asking. For. It.
