?dead men don?t r*pe? was never supposed to be comfortable.

the original post reached millions of people because women understood exactly what it was saying. we are exhausted. exhausted from being told how to dress, where to walk, when to go out, who to trust, and how to keep ourselves safe from violence we did not create.

this shirt came from that post and the conversation that followed it.

to be very clear: this is not condoning violence. BUT we are uninterested in conversations about aileen that do not acknowledge the violence, abuse, exploitation, and systemic failures that shaped her life.

wear it loud.
