Another great ad (combatting sexual harassment)



Link to their Facebook page: Make Your Move Missoula on Facebook, there are more there.

Make Your Move is an effort from Missoula's Intervention in Action Project, a group of community organizations dedicated to ending sexual violence.


Love this.

And hark, it doesn't involve using breasts to try to get attention.

all over.

why?

boys are taught so the opposite today. in my day, boys had this mentality ingrained in them as much as they have today to use a woman. so, in my day it was just a given men and even boys felt this way. today, it is the other side of the coin. and too many are not being taught. they needs .... posters,... to clue them in.

thanks

i like this one

actually, i have liked all the ones you have posted.

Awareness is one thing (and it is important for sure, if it weren't for feminists on DU showing up in GD "complaining" I wouldn't likely be here right now, I'd still be sitting comfortably in my gender-neutral "la la la la, does not apply to me, not really a woman!!!" bubble)...

...but eventually I always turn to "Well what can we do to make this better?"

So campaigns like this draw my attention (and that is why I ordered the "Transforming A Rape Culture" book from the other thread).
