A dedication for March 8, International Women's Day
but every day is a Woman Day.
And for May 14, the Mother's Day, of course <3
Edit: And today Sat. Nov. 25 2023, World Day for the elimination of gender-based violence, let's #orangetheworld to #stopviolence !
...Or, as Friend Aurelio says For Women today, everyday !
I was used to see my Amaryllis* plant blooming 2 symmetrical flowers, one opposite to the other. This time it blossomed three and the third and last (in the middle) just flowered this morning.
*Correct botanical name of these flowers above: Hippeastrum (genre Amaryllis).
Shot today in manual modality, in natural in-door noon light with my glorious Fujifilm XS-1 and its potent hyperzoom Fujinon lenses 624, an almost vintage camera exemplair bought last year pristine in box from the collection of a photographer. A great camera, a little complex as it's needed every time a manual set up and equalization of colours but apt to give true tones and such detailed textures in the things photographed that usually escape to the eye sight.

ABOUT THIS YEAR*S CAMPAIGN:
www.unwomen.org/en/news-stories/in-focus/2021/11/in-focus...
25 November is the International Day to End Violence against Women & the world 🌎 is turning orange to stand against gender-based violence. Let’s kick off the #16Days of Activism and #OrangeTheWorld!
Nearly 1 in 3 women have been abused in their lifetime. In times of crises, the numbers rise, as seen during the COVID-19 pandemic and recent humanitarian crises, conflicts and climate disasters.
While the pandemic of violence against women is not new, it’s not inevitable, unless we stay silent.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
In support of this, an event to kick-off the campaign will be held at Pemberley Lounge on November 26, Friday from 4:00 - 8:00 pm.
4:00 - 5:00 pm SLT Max Kleene
5:00 - 6:00 pm SLT S-H-E-Y-Z-Z
6:00 - 8:00 pm SLT DJ Mist
Attire: Casual with a hint of orange color to show support to the cause. More info coming up!

ABUSE IS NOT ALWAYS PHYSICAL.
This abuse can we also experience online specially here in SL.
Often we hear these:
- Women can't do anything.
- She's just a girl.
- You're not even pretty.
- I never wanted a daughter.
- You cannot wear that.
- You need to lose some weight or you'll never find anybody.
- You're useless.
- Don't be such a woman.
Abuse is not always physical and it doesn’t leave visible scars. #colortheworldorange #OrangeTheWorld #16Days
Los abusos no siempre son físicos y no siempre dejan marcas visibles. #PintaElMundoDeNaranja #16Días
Les maltraitances ne sont pas toujours physiques et ne laissent pas toujours de traces visibles. #OrangezLeMonde #16jours

Color the World Orange is an awareness destination supporting the UN Women's 16 Days Campaign Against Gender-based Violence from November 25th to December 10th. It's a relaxing and healing region where everyone can come to hang-out with friends, enjoy the zen view and listen to nature or meditate and have self-reflections. You can also discover Bryn Oh's work Lady Carmagnolle in the hidden garden.
Why having this campaign in our virtual world?
Let's face it! Gender-based abuse also exists virtually, it may be in an unintentional or intentional form. The extent of this violence may not be physical but will always result to short-term or long-term emotional trauma and anxiety to the member victims resulting to a violation of the Community of Standards (not TOS) of SL. Raising awareness in-world will give us reminders that one cannot just violate and do things according to their pleasure in-world with the expense of another person/ persons. It is time to at least put light into this issue by supporting us.
ABUSE IS NOT ALWAYS PHYSICAL.
This abuse can we also experience online specially here in SL.
Often we hear these:
- Women can't do anything.
. You are manipulating me.
- She's just a girl.
- You're not even pretty.
- I never wanted a daughter.
- You cannot wear that.
- You need to lose some weight or you'll never find anybody.
- You're useless.
- Don't be such a woman.

I am so glad for the opportunity to partner with 500px Studio and UN Women to create a photo series for the 16 Days of Activism against Gender-Based Violence, part of the United Nations Secretary-General's UNiTE to End Violence against Women Campaign. For 16 days (November 25 - December 10), with 16 photographers, we are coloring the world orange in an effort to raise awareness.
This first photograph, “1 in 3,” references the statistics that 1 in 3 women and girls worldwide will experience gender-based violence in their lifetime. That is a huge number of people, and with those kind of numbers it is almost certain that we all know a woman who is going through abuse. This issue is so widespread but often not discussed or brought to light. The more we acknowledge that this violence is a real, prevalent problem - both physical or emotional/psychological - and try to help, the more we empower women and begin to make a difference.
See my whole photo essay (and article) here. I will be posting the rest of the photos each day this week!

*What are some common signs of abuse?
- Your partner keeps track of everything you do. They monitor where you are and whom you are with at all times. They prevent or discourage you from seeing friends, family, or going to work or school.
- Your partner insists that you reply right away to their texts, emails, and calls, and demands to know your passwords to social media sites, email, and other accounts.
- An abusive partner may act jealous, including constantly accusing you of cheating. They may attempt to control how you spend money and your use of medications or birth control. They may make everyday decisions for you, such as what you wear or eat.
- They may be demeaning. They may put you down by insulting your appearance, intelligence, or interests. They may try to humiliate you in front of others and attempt to destroy your property or things that you care about.
- An abusive partner may act angry or have a quick or unpredictable temper, so you never know what might cause a problem. They may blame you for their violent outbursts and physically harm or threaten harm to you, themselves, and members of your household, including children or pets.
- They may hurt you physically, such as hitting, beating, pushing, shoving, punching, slapping, kicking, or biting. They may use, or threaten to use, a weapon against you.
- They may be sexually abusive, including rape or other forced sexual activity. They may incorrectly assume that consent for a sex act in the past means that you must participate in the same acts in the future. They may also incorrectly assume that consent for one activity means consent for increased levels of intimacy. For example, an abuser may assume that a kiss should lead to sex every time.
- An abusive partner may threaten to turn you in to authorities for illegal activity if you report the abuse, or if you resist.
You can talk with someone who has been trained to help by calling a local helpline.
*What are some safety tips if I am experiencing abuse?
If you think you are being abused, seek help. These tips provide guidance on how to find safety and support.
- Consider sharing your concerns with a trusted friend, family member, or neighbor. Work with them to develop a plan for when you need help. This plan may include, for instance, creating a secret code or multiple code words, sentences, or emojis that would help you communicate more safely with them.
- Develop an escape strategy, such as saying you need to go to the pharmacy or grocery store and, once there, asking to use the phone to call for help. Think through several plausible reasons for leaving home at different times of the day or night in case you need to escape.
- If possible, keep a telephone always charged and accessible and know which numbers to call for help: a friend, a family member, or the police. If your life is in danger, call the police if you believe it is safe to do so.
Try to identify patterns in your partner’s use and level of - violence. This can help you to predict when abuse may escalate.

UN Women and Unilever teamed up in Tanzanian tea plantations to create safer communities for women. Under a new partnership with UN Women, Unilever is supporting over 1,000 small holder farmers and raising awareness among its 6,000 employees in Tanzania.
This year, the partnership will strengthen Unilever’s Women Safety Initiative, which is paying closer attention to prevention and response to sexual harassment and other forms of gender-based violence in all Unilever tea estates and factories. The programme will also work through strategic alliances with service providers, such as the police, legal aid officers, health workers and traditional leaders, who are often among the first points of contact for survivors.
