In 1992 an Italian Supreme Court ruling overturned a r**e conviction because the victim wore tight jeans, which the Court said implied consent suggesting the victim would have had to help remove them. The Denim Day campaign started as a response to this ruling. On April 29 wear denim to help combat misconceptions around sexual assault. https://denimday.org/

[Image description: Inside a white box, text with six red flag graphics reads: “Red Flags of Abuse. Does your partner ever... Pressure you to move faster in the relationship than you’re comfortable with? Insist that you stop spending time with friends and family or that you quit hobbies, school, or your job? Want to know where you are all of the time, or excessively call, email, or text you? Criticize you or put you down, or tell you that nobody else would ever want you? Blame you (or other people) for their behavior, refusing to take responsibility? Control your shared finances or run up credit card debt in your name? It’s not your fault. Help is available.” NNEDV logo at bottom. The NNEDV logo consists of 66 small house shapes arranged in a large house shape, and text reading: “NNEDV National Network to End Domestic Violence.”]
