After yesterday's endless #MeToo stories of women being abused, assaulted and harassed, today we say #HowIWillChange.

Following him, many men are tweeting about it too. It is an act to prove that men will NOT keep quiet about sexual harassment and will help women in need, no matter what. Men are also making a promise that they will STOP blaming the victim and will take an action against the person who is sexually harassing women.

#HowIWillChange I will keep showing my 3 sons and one grandson how to honor & respect women.
Guys – meaningful change starts in the home.

I will never blame a victim, and I will never stand and watch as a man makes unwanted advances on a woman #HowIWillChange

#HowIWillChange means not being a bystander while women expend emotional labour to protect their safety; no longer apathy, but action

Creating safe spaces for women, and calling each other out and talking about it, not being silent, or complicit..#HowIWillChange

It is indeed good to see that men are coming ahead and speaking up. Many men gave a negative response too saying that they’re NOT the problem in this and later Benjamin replied by saying “You’re a problem when you ignore it too.”
It is clear that we can come together and help each other to change this. In the end, women are NOT into this alone but there are MEN who are victims too.
So it is necessary to take a stand.
