About Us:
As I have clearly underlined on the Home page, I (T. K.) and my friends (C. K. and D. A.) are not professionals. As I write this section, we are just three random college students you see on the street. We are not able to make the heavy promise of providing a safe shelter. We are not the people who can protect you when you encounter danger. We don't have any education on psychiatry or psychology, and we do not have any connections with any government institution (yet, hopefully). To tell you the truth, we haven't even graduated yet. So then why did we create this website?
It is actually pretty clear: to teach you how to set both your physical and psychological boundaries, to remind you what you already might have known, and to prevent harassment (at least as best as we can). "What if we can't do it?" or "Why are we even doing this? Somebody else can, right?" Yeah, we asked those questions to ourselves over and over again. "At this rate, there is nothing we can do."
No.
If you, I, he, she, or they don't talk about these topics, then who will?
No one has ever taught us that we have the right and need to protect our bodies and mental state, or, at the very best, it was mentioned and then swept under the rug.
We can't keep doing this, and the brutal truth is no one is going to do something either. Because it is so damn easy to just say "someone else will do it" or "it is not my responsibility to handle this".
But there is something that you need to remember, constantly:
Change starts with us.
This is why we should, no, must do anything we can to ensure a society where everyone knows they have rights over their bodies, can set boundaries without any hesitation, and not hold back from reporting something they see wrong.
With this website, we wanted to create a specific information source for you by collecting what already existed. We have just added up to what we already know, researched, and learned through the process of gathering it all together for you. To not speak without any evidence, we have placed a source link to every informative text, article, and segment of law. At some places we took the help of AI even though most of the time we did our own research and write the texts on our own.
I am not the most hopeful person in the world (in fact, I am very pessimistic), and I am not going to act like everything is easy. But even I believe that one day it is going to get better if we at least try to make a change.
This website is just a small step towards this goal.
I hope we are able to help at least one person.
I would like to thank you on behalf of my friends and myself for reading so far.
