Digital sex crimes devastate women's lives in South Korea but are inadequately punished, a human rights group found

The pinching hand symbol has become a point of contention in a charged battle over gender and anti-feminist backlash by men’s rights groups.

Even so, only 2% of the cases in 2017 resulted in prison sentences, according to the report. Last year, 4 out of 5 of those convicted received only suspended sentences or a fine. Propelling the crimes is an ingrained culture of inequality and sexist attitudes in which men cavalierly share illicit images among themselves. In a society steeped in a patriarchy that demands women remain “sexually pure,” victims are left with ongoing trauma, the rights group said.“It’s like a murder, even though he didn’t use a knife or a weapon.

“Once a nonconsensual image has been shared once, or the victim simply fears it might be shared, the fear of the image appearing or reappearing hangs over the survivor indefinitely,” the report’s authors wrote. “Any anonymous viewer can save, upload and distribute the screenshot on any website or websites — from which it may spread uncontrollably.”

Police: 4 dead, 4 hurt in shooting on Chicago's South SideCHICAGO (AP) — An argument in a house on Chicago's South Side early Tuesday erupted into gunfire, leaving four women dead and four other people injured, police said. The shooting happened at 5:42 a.m. No description of the suspect? Just as the public has stopped reacting to the daily slaughter by gun so do criminals routinely shoot to kill without giving it a thought. Interesting how GOP want to make sure the most irresponsible & criminal have easy access to guns to kill Americans. Life is cheap in the US. And this is consider the So called Democracy? People shooting each other... Get a reality check
