Stop Female Erasure
“Female erasure involves the removal of words that are specific to females and our biologically sexed bodies in language and in law. Around the world, the words female, mother, woman, and girls are being removed from news articles, advertisements, public health campaigns and in laws that are directly related to our female bodies and their biological processes which directly impact the privacy, safety, and rights of women and girls.”

Margaret Atwood, the Canadian novelist, once asked a group of women at a university why they felt threatened by men. The women said they were afraid of being beaten, raped, or killed by men. She then asked a group of men why they felt threatened by women. They said they were afraid women would laugh at them.
