Why safety of women is so important for the society

What children and moms have told me

The grow women and society makes if women are safe

​

What women need to be happy

What women need to be happy is simply safety. A woman deserves to feel safe at work, at school, at home and on the street. She deserves appreciation, respect and support, both in financial reward and in language. She can express herself respectfully, wherever and whenever she wants, about whatever she wants, knowing that her opinion is heard and respected.

​

Her body is safe: online, on the street, in the bar and at home. How she is, who she is or what she wears makes no difference. She is safe. She is safe in her sexual development, at her own pace, on her own terms, with people of her choice. A woman in a safe environment can greet any man she wants and start a conversation or a flirt, because she knows she is safe with him. She walks down the street at night in a short skirt, carefree and full of trust. Because the street is safe, and people respect her boundaries.

​

What a safe world for women looks like

A woman simply wants her children to be safe and to have a better future, and her direct environment supports her in this. Her time and effort are valued. She has a job that suits her, whether she is a stay-at-home mother, a self-employed entrepreneur or a director, and she is respected for it. People around her speak highly of her. She is, after all, the one who makes sure society develops and that people receive love, care and pensions.

​

She also gets to do nothing for a while and enjoy life carefree. She receives the right care when she is ill and can trust that medicines are good for her body. When she goes to the doctor, her complaints are taken seriously, and the doctor knows the female body and its hormones well. Her cycle gives her rest and strength at the same time. In a safe environment, algorithms, politics, media, companies and the economy naturally take her needs into account, and she is part of the decisions that shape her life.

​

Safety for women asks for our attention today

Today, many women still experience a different reality. In the Netherlands, 16% of women experienced sexually transgressive behaviour in 2022, and among women aged 18 to 24 it was more than half. Across the European Union, one in three women has experienced physical or sexual violence. Many women adjust their route, their clothing or their evening plans to feel safe.

​

This costs lives and joy of life, for women, for men and for feminine energy. The good news is that safety is growing now that women have more chances to speak up. When women share their stories together, society listens and changes. I wish myself and every woman a safe environment, in which we can live in our power and walk down the street without worries.

​

Safety opens the heart: a woman's love for herself

Think of how much energy a woman can radiate when she is safe. When she can live without obstacles, when positive thoughts come her way, when she can build her temple the way she wants, with the right materials. When she no longer has to rebuild or renovate her temple again and again, and other people help her build it.

​

A girl who grows up safely learns that she is valuable, that her boundaries count and that her body belongs to her. She carries fewer traumas and more trust. That becomes the foundation of her self-love. Research supports this: positive childhood experiences, such as feeling safe and supported at home and in the community, are linked to better mental health and healthier relationships in adulthood. A woman who loves herself can give and receive love freely. How much love can she receive and give? How easy does it become for others to love her?

​

Safe women love men more freely

When women grow up and live in safety, their relationships with men change. A woman who carries fewer traumas meets men with an open heart, with curiosity and trust. She can set her boundaries lovingly and clearly, and she can let her guard down. She sees the man in front of her, without the shadow of old pain.

​

Research shows that adverse childhood experiences are linked to more difficulties in adult relationships, such as communication, conflict and trust. The reverse is also true: the safer a childhood, the stronger the foundation for loving, lasting relationships. In the Matriarchal World, every woman is safe and every man is safe. Both feel heard, seen and valued. Men are honoured as protectors of society, and women and men can meet each other in love and respect. Safety for women therefore also makes room for more love for men.

​

Safe mothers raise children with more ease

A mother who feels safe has more energy, calm and patience for her children. She can respond to her children from love instead of stress. She trusts her intuition, asks for help when she needs it, and enjoys motherhood. Research shows that a mother's own childhood experiences influence how she interacts with her children, and that a warm, safe parent-child relationship protects children against the effects of stress.

​

Children feel everything. When their mother is safe, children feel safe too. They grow up with more self-confidence, trust and joy, and they learn from the example of their mother how to guard their boundaries and treat others with respect. How beautiful does the life of her daughters become? Safety for women is passed on through the women's line, from mother to daughter, from generation to generation. It adds years of life, and both she and her loved ones will be happier.
