Today is ! This international day of action began in response to a 1990s Italian Supreme Court ruling that overturned a r**e conviction based on the harmful implication that tight jeans can suggest consent. We stand firmly against victim blaming and reject the idea that clothing can ever be used to infer consent. Thank you to our partners in this work for participating! 👖
