Is it enough to say you have never r*ped a woman?
What happened at Cornell raises a much bigger prevention question for me: what happens when it’s your friend whose behavior starts to concern you?
When she’s too drunk.
When something in the group chat feels wrong.
When women are being spoken about like commodities.
When everyone else seems completely unbothered.
Do you question it? Or do you assume someone else will?
A new 2026 study of nearly 2,700 young men examining sexual aggression also points us towards something we need to pay far more attention to: the social environment around these behaviors and the men who may know something is happening.
We spend a lot of time talking about perpetrators and victims.
I want us to start talking about everyone in between.
Because you don’t need to know that a sexual assault is about to happen to say:
“What do you mean?”
“Is she okay?”
“She’s too drunk.”
“I’m going to check on her.”
Sometimes prevention is simply creating enough friction to change what happens next.
We need to teach our sons that not being the man who causes harm isn’t always enough. Sometimes you need to be the man who stops it.

“What is it you do?”
“I work in human trafficking.”
“Oh yeah, I’ve seen Taken.”
And listen, Liam Neeson is great. No disrespect to Liam Neeson. 😂
But Taken isn’t what most human trafficking looks like.
They’re Hollywood movies. They need villains, danger, kidnappings and dramatic rescues.
Real exploitation is often much quieter.
The person exploiting you may already be in your life.
And the process can start long before anyone would look at the situation and call it “trafficking.”
Before the first sexualized situation.
Before money changes hands.
Before the motel room.
Before the crime anyone knows how to recognize.
There may already have been attention, trust, affection, dependency, isolation, boundary testing and manipulation.
That’s the part we don’t talk about enough.
We’ve taught people to look for the dramatic ending while paying far too little attention to everything that happened before it.
So yes, watch Taken. Liam Neeson is brilliant!
Just don’t let Hollywood teach you what trafficking looks like.
Because if we want to prevent exploitation, we have to learn to recognize what trafficking really looks like.

I never posted this photo, partly because I forgot to download it, but mostly because I’m terrible at pausing to acknowledge moments like this.
Receiving an MBE from King Charles was… nice. Not life-changing, not humbling, just a really lovely moment. But like most things, I barely stopped to take it in. I was already thinking about what else needed doing, who still needed help, what came next.
Celebration has never been the point for me, impact has. But I’m learning that honoring these moments matters too. Not for ego, but as a reminder of what’s possible when you just keep showing up and doing the work.
So here it is, finally. Two years late, but posted with quiet gratitude.
P.S thank you @deanstott for the reminder!

I didn’t expect to be teaching the ABCs of consent in 2026, but after reading my comment section, apparently we’re starting from the beginning.
Since the Russell Brand verdict, I’ve watched grown adults argue that consent is a grey area. That walking into a hotel room counts. That a drink, a past relationship or silence makes asking unnecessary. That women can “take it back” afterwards.
So here it is, in crayon.
Consent, in law, means agreeing by choice, with the freedom and capacity to make that choice, at the time. It can be withdrawn during sex. Regret doesn’t undo it afterwards. And it’s never something you win by wearing someone down.
One more lesson, because the comments keep blurring it: whether someone consented and whether a crime can be proved are two different questions. An allegation alone isn’t proof of guilt. But no CCTV and no injuries doesn’t mean no evidence.
Testimony is evidence.
Sex is participation, not persuasion.
Have I missed anything?

Men, please stop panicking. A rapist going to prison does not mean you’re next.
The internet is divided again following Russell Brand’s conviction and 10-and-a-half-year prison sentence.
Apparently, men everywhere should now be terrified that historical rape allegations will land them in prison.
I find that reaction extraordinary.
I’ve been through the criminal justice system myself. I know how difficult it is to get a case investigated, prosecuted and successfully convicted. Frankly, even with the evidence against Brand, I’m surprised this case made it all the way through to such a substantial prison sentence.
This wasn’t a man sent to prison because somebody made an allegation.
More than 100 witnesses were interviewed. Over 400 witness statements were taken. More than 1,400 documents were examined. A four-week trial followed. A jury convicted him of four sexual offenses and acquitted him of three others.
That’s the justice system examining evidence, not blindly believing accusations.
Meanwhile, the overwhelming majority of sexual assaults never result in imprisonment. Many are never reported. Some aren’t even recognized as rape by the people experiencing them until years later.
Yet somehow, the conversation has become about the terrifying prospect of innocent men being locked up.
False allegations happen. Wrongful convictions happen. They are serious and deserve scrutiny.
But let’s not pretend one high-profile conviction means prisons are suddenly going to be overflowing with innocent men accused of historical rape.
If you haven’t raped or sexually assaulted anyone, this verdict is not a reason to assume you’re next.
If anything, what should shock us is how exceptional it still feels when a rape case results in meaningful accountability.
Men deserve due process. Women deserve justice. Survivors deserve to be heard.
And the passage of time does not turn rape into consensual sex.
Accountability is not a threat to men. It is a threat to impunity.

A beautiful evening. An extraordinary room. A conversation that matters. 🌹
Last night in New York, we brought together an incredible group of people for the Blue Rose Alliance Founding Circle.
For too long, we’ve measured success by how many people we rescue, rather than how many never needed rescuing.
We’re here to change that.
A huge thank you to @briangmeehan and @knocking.inc for generously sponsoring the evening and bringing extraordinary people together.
To Yule Georgieva of Symposium Capital, thank you for the exceptional wine curation, and to @flyfishclub for the beautiful setting and impeccable service.
To my wonderful husband @deanstott , who has an incredible gift for connecting people and making things happen. Thank you for putting so much heart and energy into this evening and for always believing in what we’re building.
And to my beautiful Mollie, thank you for being by my side, helping every step of the way and reminding me why this work matters so much. I couldn’t be more proud of you. ❤️
To everyone who joined us, thank you for believing that we can do things differently.
And we’re only getting started. 🌹

Listen carefully to how he talks about what happened.
His loneliness. His breakup. His fear. His future. His poor decisions.
Now consider the 15-year-old girl at the centre of those decisions.
From a sexology perspective, there is something important to understand here.
Sexual violence is not simply a matter of poor sexual decision-making. It involves consent, sexual autonomy, power and the violation of another person’s bodily boundaries.
Loneliness does not create sexual entitlement. Rejection does not excuse coercion. Emotional distress does not diminish another person’s right to sexual autonomy.
When someone describes sexual violence primarily through the circumstances that led them to offend, we need to distinguish between an explanation for their behaviour and accountability for it.
Genuine accountability requires more than acknowledging that a decision was wrong. It requires recognising the absence of consent, the violation of another person’s autonomy and the harm that followed.
That distinction matters enormously, particularly when the victim is a child.
He spoke about not wanting one night to define his future. But what about the future of the 15-year-old girl?
Rehabilitation has a place in our justice system. So does accountability.
We cannot keep measuring the consequences of sexual violence by what the perpetrator stands to lose while overlooking what the victim has already lost.

The Alexander brothers weren’t simply convicted of sexual assault. They were convicted of sex trafficking. There’s a legal distinction, and it matters.
Alon, Oren and Tal Alexander have each been sentenced to 30 years in federal prison.
Under the Trafficking Victims Protection Act framework, federal sex trafficking law addresses recruitment and other specified conduct connected to commercial sexual exploitation through force, fraud or coercion.
The jury heard evidence of coordinated recruitment, deception, drugging and sexual violence. These weren’t simply allegations of men behaving badly at parties.
But something else about this case deserves attention.
The brothers reportedly acknowledged poor attitudes towards women while continuing to deny rape and trafficking.
At what point does wealth, power and privilege become confused with entitlement to another human being?
We see similar attitudes promoted across parts of the manosphere. Women as rewards. Sexual conquest as status. Money as a substitute for consent.
We spend enormous amounts of time teaching women how to avoid dangerous men.
Perhaps it’s time we invested just as much effort in challenging the attitudes and environments that enable exploitation.
Prevention isn’t simply about recognizing victims. It’s about understanding what creates perpetrators.
And that’s a conversation we need to have long before anyone enters a courtroom.

Not naming them. Don’t need to. But kill the excuses first, no broken home, no bad estate, no lack of opportunity. Ivy League, penthouses, family money with every advantage going.
So what was missing? It wasn’t money or education, It was a standard.
And it wasn’t one man, it was a group, agreeing it was fine, nobody blinking.
That isn’t an alpha. A pack with no code is just a gang with better lawyers.
Money didn’t cause it. Money bought the silence.
You can buy a better lawyer. You can’t buy a code.
Set that Standard even if standing alone.

Sometimes the second betrayal is worse than the first.
When a child discloses sexual abuse, we assume their mother will protect them.
But what happens when the alleged abuser is the person their mother loves?
Research examining 500 child sexual abuse cases found that caregivers were less likely to believe and protect children when the alleged perpetrator was their romantic partner.
This is a documented phenomenon, not an isolated family tragedy.
Financial dependency, emotional attachment, denial, fear and unresolved trauma can all influence how a parent responds. None of them excuse failing to protect a child.
Amy Acton’s story has brought this issue into the public spotlight nearly 50 years after her childhood abuse allegations.
There is a name for some of the harm that follows: betrayal trauma.
Sometimes children don’t just lose their safety. They lose their mother, their home and the very people they trusted to protect them.
We need to talk about the perpetrators of child sexual abuse. But we also need to talk about the adults who fail to protect children from them.
Because sometimes the abuse ends, but the betrayal never does.
💜 For those comfortable sharing, do you think the betrayal afterward can be more damaging than the abuse itself?

How many times have you seen the Cornell case on your feed this week?
Now, how many times have you seen the case of the 16-year-old girl in Tunisia? Or the girls in England? The teenager in India? The women in South Africa?
I’m not suggesting we should stop talking about Cornell. Quite the opposite. We should be asking difficult questions about consent, accountability, institutional betrayal and the culture that allows sexual violence to happen.
But we need to be asking those questions everywhere.
I’ve spent my career working in exploitation, and one thing I know is that the cases making headlines are a fraction of the harm taking place.
What worries me is how easily our understanding of a problem becomes shaped by what appears on our screens.
One case dominates. We debate it, share it, argue about it, take sides. Then the algorithm moves on.
Meanwhile, other victims never become hashtags. Their stories never become national conversations. Their suffering is no less real.
Sexual violence isn’t happening more simply because you’re seeing more of it. Nor is it happening less because you’ve stopped seeing it.
We cannot allow an algorithm to determine the boundaries of our compassion.
So by all means, keep talking about Cornell.
Just don’t mistake your feed for the whole world.
The question isn’t only what we’re seeing. It’s what we’re missing.

For those who feel comfortable sharing, what happened afterward that stayed with you?
I’m tagging some of my sisters who have already bravely shared their stories publicly. 💜
You can answer here or send me a private DM. No pressure to share more than you’re comfortable with.
