Hello

Because acts of sexual violence continue to be defended with the 
statement 'she asked for it'
No woman of any colour, dress , age, character deserves to be sexually 
violated or what some might lightly call 'eve teased'.

This is an invitation to a new phase of our campaign- I NEVER ASK FOR IT
and in the true Blank Noise spirit, we're opening this to you to be an 
Action Hero.


Here's how if you tweet

    * tweet what you wore when you experienced any kind of sexual 
harassment with #ineveraskforit. (feb 17-27)
    * retweet the message above
    * you could even select your twitter page backdrop from here

look up #ineveraskforit response on twitter:
