  1. This is a step in the direction we longed for.
    People will make comments directed at others not knowing or having enough consideration re, the level of respect bridged.
    Let’s start at the workplace on day 1….
    The most degrading actions against humans will go back to the job application /interview process., where in some sectors it is common to use “favours” as the way forward.

  2. I think the government should do something about this. It really really bad. It getting out of hand. It very very sad πŸ˜₯😒. That woman have to go through this.women is not a piece of meat πŸ–on a bone. Because some man don’t know the words no.this should have done a long time ago.

    1. I wish these women and would stop chatting faut and put some action behind their words like putting up billboards island letting know that it’s a crime if men sexually assault them and men will be given long sentences if they sexually harass women and children

  3. Am sure killing would only get worse.. because people don’t just change over night…… it’s simple just push the school 🏫 in teaching this from Grade 1… Because it’s gonna take generation to change this. u all need to look into school and see the behaviour of the kids.. and it’s not just about man woman are at fault as well leading on man. . the tree 🌲 always break if u try to suddenly bend it when it’s old…. create rules over night and am sure it’s a recipe for Man to kill more women going forward… but what do I know/ what am I saying maybe this is what the government wants because he’s always trying to find a way to make crime and violence more in Jamaica!!

  4. These people are jokers how can you just talk about persons that are being sexually legislated even men if you seh we get sexually assaulted we get laughed at wah we nuh get robbed too then killed we nuh get stick up by gun point then killed these people are jokers them come pon tv fih joke women that should be apart of the legislative act and men that are being robbed and killed them should implement protocol for that too this government is really a joke
