by

They will post the messages they receive from men, mainly, who insult them on social media, with sexist or even abusive comments.

In Italy the initiative started today “I’m posting you too”. It is an idea of ​​the former president of the Italian Parliament, Laura Boldrini, which was supported by many other women, famous and not.

From now on, they will post the messages they receive from men, mainly, who insult them on social media, with sexist or even abusive comments.

Among others, this new movement is supported by singers such as Emma Marone, Nina Gili, Ariza, as well as the former Minister of Parliamentary Affairs, Maria Elena Boski.

In this way, everyone will be able to see the messages and the names of the so-called “haters”, people who use the Internet to spread messages of hatred and violence.

“These are words that on the face of it may not bruise, but actually hurt and do irreparable damage,” Boldrini said.

The Italian media, meanwhile, underline that digital violence isolates women and in some cases brings them to deep despair. Ex-partners who do not accept that a separation has taken place and want to take revenge on the women, sometimes by posting personal photos, are also responsible.
