WARNING: Distressing
Thousands of students from across every part of Australia have spoken out about a chilling culture of normalised rape and sexual assault in our schools - as horrified parents begin pulling their children out and pressure grows for systemic change.
Since being overwhelmed by the response to her petition - calling for earlier and more holistic sexual education lessons - Sydneysider Chanel Contos has received more than 4000 testimonies from students in South Australia, Western Australia, Victoria, Queensland, the ACT and NSW.
Overnight, she launched a website where the disturbing accounts are beginning to be made public for the first time.
