What is Win Culture

Image-based sexual abuse is a growing issue among young adults, and challenges remain as to how to support those who have had intimate photos distributed without their consent. This chapter begins with an exploration of image-based sexual abuse, including motivations for perpetration. The focus then shifts to address how victims might transform their feelings of helplessness into empowerment through challenging victim blaming, legislative avenues, and digital justice. Recommendations and solutions focus on engaging in activism. Throughout the chapter are stories from activists who work with Battling Against Demeaning and Abusive Selfie Sharing (BADASS), a non-profit focused on education, legislation, and advocacy work.
