In fact without any grace

In 2023, intimate partners or other family members killed about 51,100 women and girls. The number of femicides is not quite accurate because data for all countries are not accessible. Statistics do not cover « Mexico, Paraguay, India, if anyone waved their hand and trying to have a problem with violence against women to pass on to countries far away.

Adjacent Italy They shook the murder of two young women in early April. Twenty -two -year -old student was murdered by a man who had previously harassed her and asked her to go on a date with him to get to know himself better. By no means withdrew even when it Sara Campanella rejected. Did not want or could hear Words not.

I read the news of video games a few days ago No Mercy (no grace) created by Zerat Games. Until they were forced to withdraw, the game – including minors – was available on the Steam platform. She simulated rape and encouraged users to turn into the « worst nightmare of women » and not to accept the word or answer. The video game developer claimed that it was just a « game ».

It’s never just about a game, a movie, a video or a book. Huge people felt playing No Mercy It is not something that can be accepted, that everything and more were wrong with it, they signed a petition for withdrawal and horror was so great that they removed the product from the platform.

I was pissed off by the creators of this victor that they « do not intend to fight all the world », as they would be victims, as if they were injustice. How stupid, disrespectful, how wrong such a response is. We should (least) apologize to every woman who was ever victim of sexual harassment or was raped. But no. They went even longer. All those who opposed the videos were urged to « be a little more open to the fetishes of people who do not harm anyone, although you may find them disgusting. »

Dreaming about raping a woman is not a fetish. To dream of this is to dream of one of the worst crimes. About a crime that always marks, if not even destroyed by a woman and her loved ones. This was not the first time they had to withdraw a particular game due to inappropriate content; In 2019, the users of the platform had the opportunity to participate in a game in which women’s apocalypse was rooted in the role of sociopath.

With a world in which boys or men have the opportunity of something so disgusting, everything is wrong. The topic I often write about is not only about countries on the other side of the Atlantic, it is not just France, Italy, Hungary. I recently found comments from one of the social networks in which men debated about death, violence, attitude towards women. One of them wrote that he had beaten a woman in the past, but that he had not reported him, otherwise he would « go sitting », and that he was lucky about it.

There is an endless much intolerance and violence in the world, verbal, psychic and physical. In 2023, according to the United Nations, partners or family members killed an average of 140 women or girls per day. Every ten minutes a woman or girl dies from violence in a family or intimate environment.

In Slovenia, the number of femicides has also been increasing gradually in recent years – there are five to seven a year. Dry statistics? Perhaps for those who are « happy » because their victim did not report violence. For everyone else, a sad fact that no one should look away.
