A belief in male superiority can manifest in men feeling entitled to sex with women, strict reinforcement of gender roles and hierarchy (and punishment of transgressions), women having low social value and power, and associating masculinity with control of women.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In many cultures, men\u2019s violence against women is considered acceptable within certain settings or situations &#8211; this social acceptability of violence makes it particularly challenging to address GBV effectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In South Africa in particular, GBV \u201cpervades the political, economic and social structures of society and is driven by strongly patriarchal social norms and complex and intersectional power inequalities, including those of gender, race, class and sexuality.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the benefit of this campaign, we will be concentrating and highlighting the various forms of GBV that takes place online which includes, but is not limited to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Physical violence<\/li><li>Sexual violence<\/li><li>Psychological violence<\/li><li>Economic violence<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Femicide<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Globally, Femicide is recognised as hate crimes against women that are perpetrated by men simply because of the gender roles assigned to women.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In South Africa, we describe Femicide as &#8220;The intentional killing of females [women or girls] just because they are females.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Femicide \u2013 the killing of women and girls \u2013 is the most extreme form of violence and discrimination against women and girls. Various typologies of femicide have been proposed by researchers in the past several decades with most distinguishing \u2018intimate femicide\u2019 from various other types of femicide (e.g. familial femicide and stranger femicide).
