Emeritus Prof Christopher May's Post

As Vanita Sundaram says, the terrifying thing about the Pelicot case is its *not* exceptional!

'Violence against women and girls is therefore not exceptional or perpetrated only by a few problematic individuals.... These acts are not only committed by “monsters”. It is not behaviour that is limited to certain men or certain environments. It is produced in a wider cultural context that supports gender inequality & that normalises this behaviour'
