Women S Rights Activists

"Any ideology that cannot be questioned is dangerous and yet that is how Stonewall have infiltrated so many of our institutions. In picking on Bailey they have found a woman who has fought her entire life. Is this really a good look, Stonewall? Trying to destroy a black lesbian? We watch agog. Bailey, like any other woman, gay or straight, can think what the hell she likes. Is she really your enemy, Stonewall? Seriously, who do you represent now?"

"This win demonstrated the discrimination and aggravated discrimination to which I personally was subjected by a set of barristers who define and present themselves as defenders of human rights, but it also demonstrated the institutional approaches and beliefs that cause that discrimination to arise - as is now being demonstrated in other cases brought by other women against other institutions."

"There are many of us within the LGBT community who fully support trans rights but who do not support the trans extremism which is currently being advocated by Stonewall and others. I emphatically object to any formal association with Stonewall."

"Lesbian Visibility Week starts today in the UK. A good moment to salute the resilience and courage of my inspirational friend. #IStandWithAllisonBailey"

"That a gay rights charity stands accused of discriminating against a black lesbian illustrates how wrong it is to assume the rights and interests of all LGBTQ+ people perfectly align. Of course, that has not stopped white men telling Bailey that her concept of womanhood is not only wrong, it makes her a bigot."

"We've made Freedom of Information requests going back to 2009 about men's fatal violence against women. From this we've identified that 62% of women killed by men are killed by a partner or ex-partner, and that at least a third of these women were in the process of leaving, or had left him; that teenage girls, as well as women in their 80s or 90s, can be killed by men who were supposed to love them; that 92% of women who are killed by men are killed by someone they know. One in 12 is a woman who is killed by her son."

"All women are controlled by men's violence. Whether or not they are the ones on the receiving end, it affects every one of us."

"Young, professional, conventionally attractive, white women who are killed by strangers get the most attention but we must stop perpetuating this hierarchy of victims."

"The figure of eight per cent of women killed by men in the UK being killed by a stranger is consistent with the average since our records began in 2009. So ask me whether anything has changed since Sarah's murder, and my answer is no."

"They Will Get Voting Rights. That’s How It Will Affect."

"I abhor corruption and I have not benefited from the Namdia contract or any tender involving the government.”"

"“Neither my son, nor brother have a business relationship with Cohen involving a government tender or contract.”"

"We spoke to the Ministry of Sports, Youth, and National Service about building a youth concert. The ministry gave us 5 000 square meters. We will put up the building,”"

"“My son and brother are adults. As far as I am aware, the business relationship between my son and Doron was limited to the co-ownership of two small and medium enterprises, of which interest my son has been trying to dispose of for the last 12 months,”"

"“It’s not only about representation at the top. It’s also about hiring female talent so female talent is around when decisions are being made on leadership and key positions within an organization.”"

"There should be parental involvement in youth matters, and without all these, families have not played their role in youth engagement and development as supposed to be,”"

"But government help is still needed in providing better access to capital for female entrepreneurs and prioritizing government procurement from female-owned or represented businesses,"

"Families are supposed to play their role in the future of the youth by providing love and ensuring protection, having a sense of belonging, and offering financial support for youth development programs."

"“We should make it wrong to procure from businesses that are all male. Because, they’re not inclusive of our societies,”"

"‘Be Free Youth Concert’ will establish and build a youth campus where many youth development activities will be taking place. After the building is done, it will be handed over to the ministry, because it belongs to the ministry,"

"I was not a young girl when I got married. There is a big age gap difference between us but firstly, I was not young to a point where I relied on my husband for money. By the time I was married, I was a multimillionaire. I had multiple houses that I owned myself before I got married, so if my husband decides to kick me out and box me, I will just say to him ‘oh, Hage, thank you and I’m gone’. One way to protect yourself from abuse is to build yourself up so that when they start abusing you in the middle of the night and say hurtful things to you, you have your own house to go to but when you don’t have anything, you’ll be stuck,"

"Having sex is nice but it is only nice when it is consensual. Some people have made sex as their means of survival, they do it for money and when things go wrong they end up regretting it. Sex is supposed to be made to produce babies and not to be for transactional purposes,"

"thumb|Monica GeingosAvoid falling prey to older men and engaging in transactional sex,”"

"We used to have 23 percent female representation in parliament but, with the stroke of a pen it went up to 48 percent. So, we managed to double our female representation with that decision,”"

"The private sector has to do more, they have to do it faster, and there needs to be targets,”"

"We will be using our own money to do all these, including fixing the current place which belongs to the Ministry of Works and Transport, to be used for the first phase, as from the 1 September while the Youth Concert building is to be finalized,”"

"“Disrespecting women is an important enabler of gender-based violence as it reduces women to objects,”"

"We happened to have young people who want to be where they want but have no financial means. This will be a good platform for youth to come together, share ideas and knowledge, and discuss issues for youth development,”"

"Be Free Youth Concert has already introduced a financial means, selling 30 percent of tickets to young people, elders, and stakeholders who want to contribute and participate in youth development, and hosting gala dinners among other strategies to mobilize funds."

"I've decided that enough is enough... I will not be silenced anymore,""

"“Change does not come without challenge,” Geingos said, “I am challenging gendered insults this Women’s Day.”"

"Power does not concede without a demand, and neither does patriarchy,”"

"Bible classes, discussion of youth unemployment, business development, access to finance means, and family mediation to discuss children and youth-related matters are among other activities targeted in the youth concert journey. “The activities we will be doing here are part of intergeneration,”"

"“I will not be silenced anymore, especially not on Beyoncé’s internet,” the First Lady said. “If I allow myself to be silenced, bullied, and insulted, I may be signalling that this kind of conduct is okay, that it’s normal.”"

"“Shooting first and aim later is my philosophy,”"

"“’Funding my family’s lifestyle’ is an incredibly unfair characterisation,”"

"“Next time you see a woman going through crude forms of abuse, remember this: it’s not what they think about that individual woman, it’s what they think about women and their place in society. Challenge it. By standing up for one woman, you stand up for all women,”"

"“I am happy to announce that I am a @GlblCtzn advocate now. Take action with me as we focus on empowering girls and women, tackle climate change, and breaking systemic barriers.” she stated."

""Environmental degradation is not something we should tolerate, especially when our future and the future of our children's children are threatened"."

"Stop placing value on women based on their vaginas and marriage. Allow women to be! Enough of this warped mentality!!!"

"Whenever you see a successful person; you only see the public glories; never the private sacrifices."

"I grew up imagining myself in front of the camera. I would hold a cane and address the various rungs of our staircase at home and cane them if I felt they were not listening."

"Things you will regret: Allowing your potential to remain trapped behind people’s opinions. Spending too much time dwelling on the past or worrying about the future, Time spent with people that don’t want the best for you, Neglecting family, Never taking risks"

"Everyone is born for a reason and a divine purpose. You can admire someone but don’t desire to be them. God put each of us in the world for an agenda and I see Him working through my talent for His glory."

"Our water bodies are poisoned, and we can't sit aloof! Leaders, if you really care about our beautiful nation, act now!"

"Remember when the last tree dies, the last man dies"

"Many homeless trans people stay off the streets by ‘sofa surfing’: either staying with friends or, in some cases, exchanging sex for a place to stay. Inevitably, some end up sleeping rough. For trans people on the streets, life can be brutal."

"The liberation of trans people would improve the lives of everyone in our society. I say 'liberation' because I believe that the humbler goals of 'trans rights' or 'trans equality' are insufficient. Trans people should not aspire to be equals in a world that remains both capitalist and patriarchal and which exploits and degrades those who live in it. Rather, we ought to seek justice – for ourselves and others alike. Trans people have endured over a century of injustice. We have been discriminated against, pathologized and victimized. Our full emancipation will only be achieved if we can imagine a society that is completely transformed from the one in which we live."

"‘Trans’ [...] is an umbrella term that describes people whose (their personal sense of their own gender) varies from, does not sit comfortably with, or is different from, the biological sex recorded on their birth certificate based on the appearance of their external . The standard view of how sex and gender manifest in the world is as follows. Babies born with observable penises are recorded as male, referred to and raised as boys, and as adults are men; babies born with observable vulvas are recorded as female, referred to and raised as girls, and as adults are women. To be trans is, on some level, to feel that this standardized relationship between one’s genitalia at birth and the assignment of one of two fixed gender identities that are supposed to accurately reflect your feelings about your own body has been interrupted. How the person who experiences this interruption reacts to it can vary hugely – which is why ‘trans’ is a catch-all word for a diverse range of identities and experiences."

"Ending homelessness is an important political goal for society as a whole; it is especially important for trans people."
