THE WORLD TOLD US WHO WE ARE. NOW IT WILL HEAR US SAY WHO WE REALLY ARE.

For too long, they have tried to define us on their own terms. They have asked for our silence when we needed to scream.

Today we unite to change not only our destiny, but the way society perceives us. We are not victims waiting to be rescued; we are the force that is transforming the world from its roots.
Through poetry, art, and awareness, we are building a place where being a woman is not an act of survival, but one of full freedom.

If you feel this message belongs to you, if you know your voice has a weight that no one can ignore, this is your place. Do not walk alone. Join our space and help us make this scream reach every corner where silence still prevails.

We are poetry, we are art, we are WOMAN SCREAM.

THE HIDDEN WAR: THE MOST DANGEROUS PLACE HAS NO TRENCHES.

Today, while the world keeps turning, 137 women will not return home. And the most painful part is that many of them were already there. We have been taught to fear the streets, the darkness, and strangers, but the statistics scream a much more bitter truth: the home has become the most hostile battlefield.

We are not talking about a distant war with uniforms and flags. We are talking about the everyday war, the one that happens within four walls, in silence, under the roof that should be a refuge but ends up being a trap. We have spent centuries asking nicely, educating, resisting, and raising our voices, but the counter of broken lives does not stop.

We do not want to be just another number in tomorrow’s newspaper. We want the home to be peace again and for life to stop being an act of survival. Share this message if you also feel that enough is enough, that silence no longer protects us, and that every lost name hurts us all.

Your voice is the fuel that keeps this fire alive. Tell us below what this struggle means to you and why you refuse to be silent.

We are poetry, we are art, we are WOMAN SCREAM.

Imagine being told that your words are a crime. In 1300, Marguerite Porete wrote “The Mirror of Simple Souls”, a book about spiritual freedom. She wrote it in French, back then, the language of the people, instead of the Latin, commonly used by the men in power. This choice alone made her a target because it meant she was speaking directly to us, bypassing every gatekeeper who wanted to keep women silent.

The Church tried to break her spirit in 1306 by burning her book right in front of her. They gave her a choice: stop writing or face the consequences.

Marguerite chose herself. She didn't hide; she sent her work to even more powerful people, ensuring her ideas stayed in circulation. She knew the risk, but she refused to let fear dictate her intellect.

By 1308, she was locked in a Paris cell by the Inquisition. For a year and a half, she sat in that darkness. When they finally brought her to trial, she didn't beg, or apologize. She met their accusations with a wall of absolute silence. She wouldn't give them the satisfaction of a confession, and she wouldn't take back a single word she had written, as they requested.

On June 1, 1310, they burned her at the stake. They thought that by destroying her body, they would erase her name and her voice from history. They failed.

Her book was smuggled across borders and read in secret for the next 500 years. It was so profound that many later readers assumed a man must have written it because they couldn't wrap their heads around a woman being that brave and that brilliant.

Marguerite proved that just one risen voice is the most dangerous thing to an unjust system.

How many women in our history were silenced before they could even finish their first chapter? We carry their legacy every time we refuse to be quiet.

The origin of the word “feminism” is a fascinating story filled with unexpected turns. Did you know its first documented appearance, in Paris in 1871, was in a medical thesis? Yes, doctor Ferdinand Valère Faneau de la Cour used it to describe a supposed “pathology” in men with tuberculosis. He observed that some patients developed traits he considered feminine, such as wide hips or high-pitched voices, and he called this set of characteristics “feminism,” understanding it as a halt in masculine development, a pathological feminization of the body. He even linked it to weakness of character, traits that at the time were negatively associated with women.

A year later, the word took another turn, this time into the territory of insult. Writer Alexandre Dumas fils used it in a pejorative way in his pamphlet L’homme-femme. He called men who supported women’s political rights “feminists,” equating them with that supposed “disease” of the male body. Calling someone a feminist was meant as an accusation of moral and intellectual weakness.

But the story does not end there. Thanks to the strength and vision of courageous women like French suffragist Hubertine Auclert, the word was reclaimed. What was once an insult became a banner of resistance, a powerful symbol for the movement seeking equal rights for women and men. This transformation is an act of linguistic rebellion: taking a word used against you and turning it into your own identity.

At Woman Scream, we celebrate the power of words to rebel and transform, just as we do. Feminism today is the principle of equality that unites us and pushes us to keep raising our voices, without borders, for a fairer world for everyone.

Changing your name, just to be seen…

Not so long ago, a woman’s voice in literature was often silenced, questioned, or simply ignored. It was not a lack of talent, it was a deep disbelief in the value of the female perspective within the literary canon. Women were not taken seriously!

In this restrictive context, Charlotte Brontë, Emily Brontë, and Anne Brontë chose to write anyway. Aware of the barriers, they used male pseudonyms. Not as an aesthetic choice, but as a survival strategy so their words could be read beyond gender.

Their novels go beyond storytelling. They explore autonomy, desire, moral conflict, and the limits imposed by society. They portrayed women who dared to think for themselves in a world that saw that as a threat.

Their achievement is not only that they were published, but the context in which they did it. They had to adapt to a system that denied their legitimacy. Their legacy still resonates.

Today we may not need false names, but the struggle is not over. Expectations still shape how women are “allowed” to speak and how far they can go.

Remembering them is not simple nostalgia. It is recognizing a history that still echoes today.

We are their voices that cross centuries.
We are SCREAM.
