Being beautiful doesn’t make you safe. In fact, sometimes it makes you a target. This piece unpacks the myth of pretty privilege, the danger of sexualization, and why I’m done accepting compliments that come with disrespect.

April isn’t just another month—it’s Sexual Assault Awareness Month (SAAM), a time to confront the pervasive issue of sexual violence head-on. This year, under the theme “Together We Act, United We Change”, we’re reminded of the power of collective action in preventing sexual abuse, assault, and harassment. In this post, I delve into the significance of SAAM, spotlight the critical TAKE IT DOWN Act, and share personal reflections on why this fight is deeply personal. Join me as we navigate the path from awareness to action, because together, our voices can drive the change we desperately need.

Women are told to be sexy—but not for themselves. To be seen—but only in a way that’s palatable. In this post, I dive into the feminine double bind: the toxic, exhausting contradiction of being hypersexualized, then shamed for it. This one’s real, raw, and deeply personal.

Male loneliness is real—but blaming women for it isn’t just delusional, it’s dangerous. In this piece, I break down what men can actually do to be better allies, why incel culture is a threat, and why real masculinity starts with emotional accountability.

Rape culture isn’t just about rape—it’s about the silence, the excuses, and the systems that protect predators while blaming victims. As a woman with a 96% male audience, I’m not here to sugarcoat it. You might not be the problem—but you are part of the culture. And that means you have a responsibility.

This post isn’t just another statistic drop. It’s a call to action: to confront what we’ve normalized, to believe survivors, and to change the narrative—starting with ourselves.
