#This is noted

There is a flash mob dedicated to a student killed by a former guy in social networks. The defense was needed after accusations of the “provocative behavior” of the victim

In Russian social networks, a joint of solidarity is held #This is noted. On the night of January 23, the student of MGTU Artem I. killed his former lover - the Higher School student Tatyana Otnova, after which he raped her and committed suicide.

Many Internet users began to leave comments on social networks that the girl allegedly provoked a young man to kill, causing his jealousy by publishing her erotic photographs on the Internet.

Some media outlets came out with headlines that Tatyana voluntarily entered the image of a “potential victim”, behaved unworthy.

The answer was the flash mob of users who, under the hashtag #This is a denial on Facebook, Twitter, Vkontakte, began to publish their pictures on the Instagram, opposing violence in relation to a woman.

“New” spoke with the head of the project by Violence.net Anna Rivina, who also took part in the action.

"We must make every effort so that in a decent society there is no way to say such a thing aloud"

- I never post such photographs into the network, however, yesterday I published my very frank photo. I did this, because I think the opinion that it is possible to “provoke for murder” - inadequately and monstrously. We must make every effort so that in a decent society there is no way to pronounce this out loud.

You need to understand: when a man spreads himself in any form, he does not face the condemnation that a woman faces. Instead of arguing again and again, how sexy is sexy and how it “provokes a man to violence” (there is, of course, no causal relationship), it must be reminded that a woman cannot be perceived as a property that should behave convenient for you.

There is a big problem related to the fact that female sexuality is an ephemeral concept. A woman who is too sexy is bad, a woman who is not sexy is also bad. But after all, every man subjectively perceives this “correct dose of sexuality”, in his own way interprets the availability of a woman.

We can look at the dresses of the Russian empresses who wore a very frank neckline, but we will not conclude that they were available. You can recall the exhibition that took place this year at the same American University, where

Things in which women were raped were shown. There were absolutely ordinary T -shirts, pants ... "Non -sequence" of such clothes did not stop the rapists.

This flash mob should make it clear that the aggressor, rapist, the person who attaches to someone else's freedom is always to blame. The horror that you have to read is not even in the comments, but in the media after the monstrous murder of Tatyana, the insurance demonstrates how some of our fellow citizens relate to human life and, in particular, to the life of a woman. It is they who cultivate violence in our society.
