It exists for a reason

"During the jury selection process for Harvey Weinstein’s criminal trial this month, dozens of women gathered outside a Manhattan courthouse to perform a version of the dance/chant known as 'Un violador en tu camino,' or 'A Rapist in Your Path.' First in Spanish, then in English, they sang: 'Patriarchy is our judge that imprisons us at birth/And our punishment is the violence you don’t see.'”
