A woman who works at a bus terminal in Argentina unwittingly became a viral sensation after a screenshot of her awesome message against slut-shaming and rape culture was shared more than 30,000 times on Facebook.
Gina Riverós
told
Buzzfeed she was prompted to write the status update after a man buying a ticket off her made comments about a girl who was wearing a miniskirt.
This is what she had to say:
"Yesterday at the bus terminal at 6 a.m., there was a drunk man, and ten minutes later he fell into a deep sleep. He had oversized pants that left his underwear and half of his ass exposed.

In sum: young, drunk, late at night, in a sketchy place like the terminal and with his ass in the air… and not I, nor any of the women who passed by this spectacle, raped him or killed him.
You see guys — it's not so hard, and that no matter how drunk one is or how one is dressed, it's possible to respect the lives of others???"
Riverós only became aware that her on-point post had got so much attention and kudos after her son informed her. He must be a proud kid.
