As you know, it’s extremely difficult to make much progress on these issues in the short term. All of us who are concerned about women’s rigts must keep going, campaigning and raising awareness as much as possible

To run a few government campaigns against a media hate campaign that grosses more than Hollywood and the arms industry combined is simply pissing in the wind. And the attitudes that porn promotes are at the root of all male attacks on women and children and the institutional cover ups undertaken by male led governments, police forces and judicial systems. Sexism and covering up sexist violence against women and children is as big a problem in the left as it is in the right of politics and both sides uphold the media campaign that spreads this murderous attitude from one generation to the next.
