The Cambodian government drafted a legislation today that would allow Cambodian police to fine people that are dressed inappropriately. This was meant to reinforce a culture of impunity around sexual violence, specifically stopping men from going out shirtless and women from wearing anything too “short” or “see through“.
Laws should be made to protect peoples’ rights, not oppress them. Women should be able to exercise their fundamental freedom and that includes self expression through the clothes they choose to wear. “Reprimanding women for their clothing choices serves to reinforce the notion that women are to blame for sexual violence they suffer, and thereby further entrenches the culture of impunity which exists in relation to gender-based violence.”
Lets put an end to this drafted legislation and make sure it doesn’t pass.
