Can I Walk Free?

Can I walk free?

Naida Ćirić 

Is this just a trend, or am I really in 98%, in a percentage of women who have been sexualized by men ?

Show your ten fingers, and if this sentence applies to you, put one finger down.

1. If you have ever been looked at by a man in a strange way.

2. If you have been touched by a man against your  will.

3. If you have ever been sexualised just because you are a girl.

4. If someone has said something about your body, but you didn’t want to hear.

5. If you have felt uncomfortable around someone, if you have even one finger down, am I sorry, welcome to the club. Don’t worry, everything is going to be fine. We are going to fight for ourselves! Remember what Beyónce said: “Who run the World? Girls”!

In every way girls have been discriminated against by men. Some of girls(for them) are too short, too fat, too skinny, too smart, too lazy-they think that no woman is perfect and that they have the right to make negative comments, something bad, or do something. Do they know how it feels? Do they know how big a scar does it leaves? Yes, they do, but they don’t care.

How is this situation in Bosnia? The situation here is really miserable, nobody really cares. Girls are trying to talk about it, but they are silenced, you can hear screams in their head, but no words will come out, jus tears with a deep story that we can just think about, but never be sure of but never express.
Our famous actor, Miroslav Mika Aleksicć, 68 years old, who had his own acting school, was accused of raping 5 innocent young girls, non of whom were even 18. And do you know what our country did about it? They made fun of it and called it a trend -“a trend where every female was raped”. But we as women are strong and won't let anyone destroy our crown.

Was I in that situation?

Sadly, yes, I think every girl here was in this situation. Boys comment on us unnecessarily all the time, but it does not get to my heart. Why? Because if it did, they would probably be happy about it, so just a small tip-do not show your emotions and instead say something to them that will distract their attention, and believe me, they will never look or say anything again.

And the final question- Can I walk free?- YES, you can, no one has the right to even question you.
