Gina @ginamartinuk</p><p>I brought the "upskirting law" into affect in 2019.<br>Let's talk about that image JK Rowling shared.</p><p>She did this to humiliate artist Freda Wallace. That is a specific motivation we included in the Voyeurism Act. We fought for, and included it "specifically* because men often upskirt women (it is overwhelmingly men) to "punish" them for their bodies, clothing and for being a woman, by humiliating them.</p><p>That's called misogyny and it's what we're witnessing Joanne do here: transmisogyny.</p><p>It goes like this:</p><p>1. Target someone you dehumanise<br>2. Assert power with demand (Joanne wanted to debate Freda, for me a man wanted a "yes to his advances)<br>3. If they refuse, punish them by capturing a "humiliating" image of their body<br>4. Share it to exert power and humiliate<br>Exact same logic.
