Just spoke at the huge European Conference on Domestic Violence in Oslo, Norway. I was encouraged by the incredible work going on - and that speakers constantly addressed the threat of male violence against women and girls. No talk of pronouns. No fake research claiming Trans are more threatened and harmed. Fantastic!

Here's something small that makes me happy:

When I was a kid, I learned that rainbows are made by the sun bouncing off rain drops.

So, when it's sunny in one direction and rainy in another, I look toward the rain and usually see a rainbow.

It's doing that in my backyard now.

I say let them come

"So I grew up believing that there was one bad man who hurt my family, who hurt the women in my family. And it wasn't until later - really, until I started researching this - that I began to understand this problem as part of a larger cultural problem, a legal problem, a systemic problem. And in working on this, I ended up researching the 14th Amendment quite deeply. And I learned that there are no constitutional protections for women against sexual violence and that, in fact, the Violence Against Women Act was essentially gutted by the Supreme Court in 2005 when a woman named Jessica Gonzales brought her case in front of the Supreme Court. She was suing the Castle Rock Police Department of the state of Colorado for failing to show up to protect her from her violent husband. She had a restraining order against her violent husband. She called the police many, many times. No one came to help her. They refused to come help her. They said, well, he's your husband. And her husband ended up killing her children - her three daughters.

And when she took her case to the Supreme Court, the Supreme Court essentially said, you can't sue the police department. They have no constitutional obligation to provide you with active protection. Some legal scholars have said this shuts down the 14th Amendment for women. It shuts down the possibility for women to look to the federal government for protection from gender-based violence. So when I realized that this trauma in my family wasn't just one bad man, one evil man, but a legal and systemic problem in this country, it was eye-opening for me."
