There is a line we are drawing — and once it’s drawn, we are not stepping back over it.
Girls do not have to argue for their safety.
They do not have to prove they deserve protection.
They do not have to present charts, court cases, trauma timelines, or a “big enough sample size” to finally be taken seriously.
We are done letting the world turn their pain into a debate club exercise.
In 2026, the door is closing on that.
Because safety is not a lottery prize.
Safety is not a privilege.
Safety is not negotiable.
Safety is their birthright.
And every girl — quiet girls, loud girls, nerdy girls, church girls, sporty girls, brilliant girls, awkward girls, hurting girls — every single one — carries full worth from the moment she arrives on this earth.
The Old Game Was Rigged — and We See It Now
For too long, when girls spoke up, the adults in the room responded with interrogation:
“Are you sure?”
“But he’s such a nice guy.”
- “But he’s struggling.”
“It couldn’t have been that bad.”
- “Don’t we have bigger issues? (NO.)
“Why didn’t you say something sooner?”
- “Can’t we be a little nicer”?
“How many girls is this happening to?”
Those questions didn’t create clarity.
They created silence.
They protected reputations instead of children.
They defended institutions instead of bodies and hearts.
They trained girls to second-guess their own instincts — the very instincts meant to keep them alive.
And we watched too many girls walk away thinking:
“Maybe my safety doesn’t matter as much as everyone else’s.”
No more.
No Girl Is a Throwaway
Let this be said with fire in the voice and steady conviction in the heart:
No girl is disposable.
No girl exists to be sacrificed for the comfort of adults, or other peers.
No girl owes her body, her time, her smile, her silence, her rights, her opportunities, or her forgiveness to anyone.
Not to family.
Not to teachers.
Not to coaches.
Not to pastors.
Not to peers.
Not to strangers.
Not to institutions built on image and denial.
If a girl says, “I don’t feel safe,” the response is not:
“Convince us.”
The response is:
“We hear you. We believe you. We move now.”
Protection Should Arrive Before the Headlines
A healthy society doesn’t wait until tragedy strikes and then gather to mourn with statements and hashtags.
A healthy society:
builds guardrails early
trains adults to recognize grooming and coercion
honors boundaries without shaming
listens without blaming
fixes systems instead of fixing girls
Protection is not fear-based.
Protection is love-driven.
It says:
“Your body is sacred. Your safety matters. Your future matters. You matter.”
We’re Raising a New Standard
In 2026, the standard shifts — permanently.
We are raising girls who:
trust their instincts
understand boundaries as strength, not “attitude”
know they never have to minimize themselves to keep the peace
And we are raising communities that:
intervene
report
believe
hold adults accountable
center the wellbeing of children over the comfort of anyone else
Because the world becomes safer the moment we decide girls are not experiments, practice runs, or acceptable losses.
This Is Sacred Work
Protecting girls is not dramatic.
It is not overreacting.
It is not “too much.”
It is how we honor the future.
It is how we break generational harm.
It is how we build a world where girls grow into women who are whole — not constantly rebuilding from wounds they never should have had.
So here is the proclamation:
In 2026 and beyond:
No more debating girls’ right to protection.
No more sacrificing girls to save reputations.
The door is closed on that era.
We are choosing girls — every single time.
Because no girl is a throwaway.
Not this year.
Not ever.
