Every 15 seconds, somewhere in the world, a woman is hurt.
Most of the aggressors are men who are close to the victim. - UN Women, 2017

It is unclear whether or not these statistics include trans people.

"Dear Death (Don’t Kill Us)" by Renee Goust

If you just glance at me you wouldn’t notice
But there’s a doubt that grows inside my head
Would it be best to speed up my pace while I turn that corner where those eyes are staring at me?
Should I stare back at them?
Or would it be best to walk another block and turn at the next corner?

The next corner is basically the same,
This city is exponentially heavy
Could it be that I’m nothing but free pleasure?
A well-stocked shelf?
“Take a look! See if there’s anything you like!”?
Could it be that the curves of my hips put my life in more danger than the curves on a highway?

My mother used to tell me “Be careful.
It’s best you not be out alone at night.”
And make sure that anything you drink is poured for you right before your eyes
I’m not sure what kind of advice she gave my brothers
I don’t think she’s worried that a woman might kill them

Oh, dear death
Don’t, don’t come today
Oh, dear death
Don’t come today

Not all of us will stay on this lucky streak
Consider yourself lucky you’re alive today
Consider yourself lucky if your boyfriend doesn’t turn out to be a rapist, an abuser, or a femicide
Consider yourself lucky if death dislikes your waistline and it doesn’t follow you around in its pick-up truck
I don’t know what to do with this rage anymore!
And neither do my friends or my partner
We file complaint after complaint after complaint after complaint and no one seems to ever go to jail for it
They’re free out there getting some girl drunk and maybe they’ll “hit on her” in a few hours.

Oh, dear death
Don’t, don’t come today
Oh, dear death
Don’t come

Oh, dear death
Don’t, don’t come today
Oh, dear death
Don’t come today

(Don’t you kill us!
No, don’t kill us!
Don’t you kill us!
No, don’t kill us!
Don’t you kill us!
No, don’t kill us!
Don’t you kill us!
No, don’t kill us!
Don’t you kill us!
No, don’t kill us!
Don’t you kill us!
Don’t kill us!)
