In a world where stereotypes like “men don’t cry” and “man up” perpetuate harmful norms, South Africa grapples with one of the world’s highest rates of Gender-Based Violence (GBV), a crisis that demands immediate action.

#RespectHER is more than just a movement – it’s a revolution. It’s a powerful call to action to rewrite the narrative. GBV casts a dark shadow, but we are determined to be the guiding light that empowers men to discover their true identity, live with purpose, and extend respect to all women. Guided by the wisdom of “prevention is better than cure,” we are unwavering in our commitment to challenge societal norms and address the root causes of violence through open dialogue, education, support, and healing.

As a mother of four boys, including superfetation twins, my personal experiences have shown me the challenges that boys and young men face in today’s society. This fuels my passion. Alongside my husband, we are pioneering this cause to inspire families and communities to unite and become part of the solution. Through “real talk” about authentic manhood, we can mentor boys to become “real men” who respect women. Together, we can cultivate a society where men and women coexist in harmony, mutually supporting and uplifting each other.

Join us in the #RespectHER Revolution. Together, we can make a meaningful difference, illuminating the path to a brighter, safer, and more fulfilling future for all. Your voice, your support, and your actions matter in the fight against GBV.
