This is a direct appeal to the UN's Committee on the Elimination of Discrimination against Women (#CEDAW) from the women who have survived the brutal system of prostitution, and know it to be anything but "work." @CedawUn youtube.com/watch?v=O2DYyPlH…

To be clear, $140 is the average monthly earnings on OnlyFans for the content creators. This is a weird promo piece for OF and the sex trade
Sheena Sittner’s teaching job paid her about $140 a day. OnlyFans often pays that much in an hour. In September, a contractor removed Sittner from teacher assignments. Ever since news spread of her dismissal, business has been booming. wapo.st/3VJ0ekD

Our Founder @lexington1920 has been quoted in @Telegraph today. “Surrogacy agencies, fertility clinics and other commercial entities have a clear financial interest in normalising the idea that a woman should harvest her eggs or undertake a pregnancy for others as a way to share her good fortune.” With our thanks to @nicolelampert for this pertinent piece. How #surrogacy became the new frontier of the culture wars. telegraph.co.uk/news/2026/10…

As we remember #RobinMorgan, we honor a feminist voice that never shied away from naming the systems that sustain inequality and reminding us that liberation requires changing those systems, not simply making them more comfortable.

Behind every act of #femicide is a pattern of violence that began long before the final act. We must take intimate partner violence seriously in order to build a culture where girls and women are safe in their homes, relationships, and communities. #DVAM2026

🎯“¿Qué es el abolicionismo de la prostitución?” explica de forma sencilla los pilares del modelo abolicionista. 👉Queremos acabar con falsos mitos sobre la prostitución y hacer llegar a la población por qué el abolicionismo es la política feminista de los derechos humanos de las mujeres. #23S #ProstituciónEsViolencia #LeyAbolicionistaYa geoviolenciasexual.com/que-e…

#23S Hoy es el El Día Internacional contra la Explotación Sexual y la Trata de Personas. 👉Instaurado en 1999, la fecha se eligió en recuerdo de la promulgación el 23 de septiembre de 1913, en Argentina, de la primera ley contra la explotación sexual infantil en el mundo. 🎯El abolicionismo es la política de derechos humanos que hace responsables a traficantes, proxenetas y demandantes de prostitución; que da salida y apoyo a las víctimas; que promueve la igualdad entre mujeres y hombres. #ProstituciónEsViolencia #LeyAbolicionistaYa 🔗 Lo que necesitas saber, vía @CATWIntl youtu.be/DjDmHCskB6s

The theme for the 81st session is "Restoring Trust, Managing Transformation: A United Nations That Delivers for All." As the #UnitedNations continues to adapt to an evolving context, it is paramount that the human rights of women & girls be at the core of such changes. #UNGA81

This speech on #surrogacy #lawreform from @steveyemm should not go unnoticed: “There are things is our society Mr Pritchard which I believe should never be reduced to questions around contract and individual choice and intention and I am certain that motherhood is one of those.”

No government will ever end #VAWG, incldg prostituted ♀, by decriminalizing the ones (sex buyers & pimps) who inflict pain & cause death. The Sankara Equality Law is solution: decrim the prostituted, offer them services & penalize perps.@Embrace_Dignity nation.africa/kenya/news/gen…

"Gloria personified the revolutionary movement that shook the patriarchy and its laws entrenching women in second-class citizenship, a battle that transcends race, class, caste, and nationality," writes CATW's executive director @tainabienaime. catwintl.substack.com/p/stay…

Excellent show. Incredibly well done. If season two is going to be about CSAM, I hope you will be speaking to @CdnChildProtect. @lizzydgoodman
