They see a beautiful woman and think they can touch her? We need to make men respect women as humans first and then show them how to treat women.
Not this b.s. that if it's pretty, I want to touch it. Fuck that.
These stories really trigger me and Elizabeth Smart surviving her kidnapping is one of those amazing survival stories.
I guess I'm very protective of her. shit
