Wear your jeans with purpose today. There is never an excuse for sexual violence. Join us this Denim Day to stand with survivors of sexual assault and push back against victim-blaming and harmful myths. In 1999, the Italian Supreme Court overturned a r**e conviction after deciding that because the victim was wearing tight jeans, she must have helped her attacker remove them, thereby implying consent. Enraged by the verdict, the women of the Italian Parliament launched an immediate protest by wearing jeans to work and to the steps of the Supreme Court. For the nearly 30 years since, Denim Day has served as an international visual symbol of support for survivors and protest against sexual assault and victim-blaming. There is never an excuse or invitation to sexually harass, abuse or assault. Wear your jeans proudly today to help create a culture of consent and respect.
