Theresa Ganhör only shared a reading tip on social media and, as reported, received a wave of sexist messages. The senders should have been aware of their misconduct by now. They showed themselves purified, apologized for their misogynistic macho comments.
A sad fact of our time: Social media lowers the inhibition threshold for verbal abuse. Women in the public eye, in particular, face major challenges in this regard.
Apologies to the young politician
In the case of the neo-city councilor and head of the Linz VP women, Theresa Ganhör, the matter is settled as far as the internet machos have now apologized to the young politician for their misogynistic outpourings. Excessive alcohol consumption would have been the reason for tasteless messages.
“It is important to act together against this”
“It shows how important it is to stand up and take a stand against sexism and discrimination. Only together can we make it clear that sexism and sexual harassment are not normal. It needs more awareness, a loud stance against it and solidarity with those affected,” says VP club president Elisabeth Manhal.
