Violence against women does not distinguish between social classes or geographical origin. It occurs in all segments of society, in all countries of the world. Unfortunately, also in Europe, although some try to deny it. One in three women in Europe will suffer some type of violence during their lives. Some will not survive. Now, we have a historic opportunity to give a voice to all women and survivors that gender-based violence is trying to silence. However, we cannot have a European directive against gender-based violence that does not include rape, because this is one of the most extreme forms of violence against women. We must be clear: only yes means yes. Sex without consent is rape.
