_sexual violence_
Sexual violence is a broad term that refers to any sexual act, attempt to obtain a sexual act, unwanted sexual comments, or acts directed against someone without their consent. 😡 This includes but is not limited to rape, sexual harassment, sexual abuse, and exploitation.
Consent is key in all human interactions, especially when it comes to matters of intimacy. Without explicit consent from all parties involved, actions can cross the line into harmful territory. 💔 It’s important to recognize that power dynamics, cultural norms, and societal expectations can all contribute to environments where sexual violence thrives.
If you or someone you know has experienced sexual violence, seeking support is crucial. Reach out to trusted friends, family, or professionals who can provide guidance and assistance. 💪 Remember, no one deserves to be violated, and speaking up can lead to healing and justice.
