● Emily Atack: ‘They put their daughters to bed, then go online and send me rape threats’’
I have two neices and I've worry about how they feel and how far they could go (for academic &  professional reasons).
But all this is beyond the pale.

For all sorts of reasons it seems to me that the internet has meant this has become more common. It makes it easier to do, easier to get away with, it ties in with the availability of porn that normalises this. The common mantra from many on the left that sex work is work then backs the idea up that women can be trafficked like commodities. Meanwhile on the right you have Andrew Tate
