According to International Labour Organization, 29 million slaves - 71% of the estimated total - are women and girls. They also comprise 99% of forced labour workforce in sex industry, and 84% of forced marriages.

The Everyday Sexism Project exists to catalogue instances of sexism experienced on a day to day basis. They might be serious or minor, outrageously offensive or so niggling and normalised that you don’t even feel able to protest. Say as much or as little as you like, use your real name or a pseudonym – it’s up to you. By sharing your story you’re showing the world that sexism does exist, it is faced by women everyday and it is a valid problem to discuss.

Some may notice that pika@rekabu.ru has been appointed moderator of !Antisexism@lemmy.today and !positivity@lemmy.today. This is my second account.

Unfortunately, as of recently, lemmy.today isn't always properly available from my region, and I want to ensure things go smooth even if VPNs fail. Nothing else changes, both accounts belong to me. Hope for your understanding!

It's fairly well established that feminism is broadly the movement to bring about the equality of the sexes (i.e. the movement against sexism).

Why does it feel like "anti-sexism" as a term might be born from a misunderstanding of feminism as being misandrist? I don't see any articles on "anti-sexism", anyone have clarity?
