A most worthy case.
And women's rights, basic rights, like being allowed to decide to do with their own bodies, their own lives, is being pushed back these years.
Even the right to be a woman, is bizarrely under attack.
And women are still being abused with no social segment at all, being exempt, as we have learned recently.
And if you look at YouTube there are loads of incel-videos out there. (I use incel in the broadest possible definition.)
And what is even more absurd: So many attacks on women, in all kinds of ways, are perpetrated by other women.
I sometimes despair, but that's a luxury we cannot afford ourselves, we must not afford ourselves.
A rather depressing report from UN
Facts and figures: Ending violence against women | UN Women – Headquarters
Figures for 2023:
Every ten minutes worldwide a woman or a girl is killed.
140 killed a day or 85.000 a year.
60 % of these killings are committed by the partner/spouse/boyfriend/girlfriend of the woman or a close relative.

On another and more cheerful note. It was windy today but very balmy for this time of year! 15 degrees C no less, and even with the wind it didn't feel cold at all. In fact I was out in the garden this afternoon doing some work and didn't even zip up my jacket.
So even though Queen Mary was dressed for this time of year, she wouldn't have been cold.
