I authored the manifesto...which, is as it stands, points the problem at men and their access to the patriarchal dividend as being at the nucleus of why men rape females.
The manifesto aims to encourage women to look after each other. By encouraging a sisterhood and a female united front that recognises that our problems are ours and need to be solved by us. As females we need to start asserting to ourselves and each other, that we have the power within us as females to put an end to rape by bringing an end to the male perpetrator's imagined power which he uses to force females into being submissive.
"Women relinquish all rights in the presence of a man who could apparently be considered a rapist especially if he has been considered a friend." Ntozakhe Shange
