“You don’t get to be hierarchical with abuse. And you don’t get to tell women that because some guy only showed them their penis that their pain isn't as great as a woman who was raped.”

— Minnie Driver

“Gosh it’s so *interesting how men with all these opinions about women’s differentiation between sexual misconduct, assault and rape reveal themselves to be utterly tone deaf and as a result, systemically part of the problem (*profoundly unsurprising).”

“There is no hierarchy of abuse – that if a woman is raped [it] is much worse than if woman has a penis exposed to her that she didn’t want or ask for… You cannot tell those women that one is supposed to feel worse than the other. And it certainly can’t be prescribed by a man.

How about: it’s all fucking wrong and it’s all bad, and until you start seeing it under one umbrella it’s not your job to compartmentalise or judge what is worse and what is not.

Let women do the speaking up right now. The time right now is for men just to listen and not have an opinion about it for once.”

— Minnie Driver, Minnie Driver: men like Matt Damon 'cannot understand what abuse is like'
