@formerOrdinary @MrPitbull07 That says she was 18

@MrPitbull07 Judge Brandon Birmingham of Dallas County , Texas let Hector Fernandez rape his 12 year old daughter then dropped charges against him. Michelle hasn't been heard from since.

In 1965, a 17-year-old girl in Sicily was kidnapped, assaulted, and held captive for over a week. Then her attacker offered her a deal: Marry him, and everything would be “forgiven.” At the time, Italian law allowed rapists to avoid punishment if they married their victims. It was called “reparatory marriage.” The logic was horrifying: A woman’s “honor” mattered more than her consent. If she married the man who violated her, her reputation could supposedly be restored — and the rapist could walk free. Most women had no real choice. Families pressured them. Communities expected obedience. The law itself encouraged silence. But Franca Viola said no. At 17 years old, traumatized and publicly shamed, she refused to marry the man who assaulted her. That single word changed Italy forever. Her decision sparked outrage in her town. Neighbors turned against her family. Their vineyards and olive groves were burned in retaliation. But Franca’s father stood beside her and supported her decision to press charges. In 1966, Franca testified publicly against her attacker in court. At a time when most victims were expected to stay silent forever, she spoke openly in front of the entire country. Italy watched in shock. Her attacker, Filippo Melodia, was convicted and sentenced to prison. For the first time in Italian history, a woman had publicly rejected “reparatory marriage” and won. The case became international news. But the law itself still remained. For another 15 years, rapists in Italy could technically still escape punishment by marrying their victims. Then finally, in 1981, Italy abolished the law completely. And many activists pointed to Franca Viola as the moment the country first began confronting the cruelty of that system. Years later, Franca married a childhood friend who had stood beside her through everything. Not because she needed her “honor restored.” But because she deserved love, dignity, and a life defined by her own choices. That’s why her story still matters. Franca Viola wasn’t just resisting one man. She was resisting an entire culture that treated women’s suffering as something to hide rather than something to fight. At 17 years old, she stood against her attacker, her community, and even the law itself. And eventually, the law changed. Sometimes history moves because powerful people decide to act. And sometimes history moves because one terrified teenager quietly refuses to surrender.

@ngwanana_Modimo @yvessirae I was guna write a mean, shitty response but you should feel blessed to not know what it's like to have your husband suddenly become a completely different person once you're trapped.

@yvessirae They stay choosing the very same one who detests them cos there’s no way you are only finding out in the marriage that he is a horrible human being

My best friend left her husband of 3 YEARS because she was doing ALL THE COOKING and ALL THE CLEANING the entire marriage. She works DAY SHIFTS and still handles the HOUSEHOLD before he even gets home. Last week, she came home LATE from a DOCTOR’S APPOINTMENT (she’s PREGNANT), and this man didn’t even ask if she wanted DINNER. He cooked ONLY FOR HIMSELF, ate right in front of her, then had the nerve to COMPLAIN that she didn’t make food and that he “had to” cook….People show you in SMALL MOMENTS when they don’t LIKE YOU. Ladies, please don’t MARRY MEN WHO HATE YOU.

@noctglaiveart Metty I just want you to know that your art always makes me smile. I love all your work. I hope you're doing well.

saviour.

@ThePOTSPostman Mine is because my muscles surrounding my hypermobile bits are so overworked trying to keep them in place that they are wiped out. This has led to severe muscle fatigue akin to the burning when you run too hard/fast, but it happens to me within minutes of moving that body part.

Anyone know what may cause muscles to become super fatigued quickly? Say putting dishes away, arms feel super heavy after 30 mins, like you did high intensity weight training.
