Gisèle Pelicot, the central figure in a mass rape trial in France, has urged for a shift in societal attitudes toward rape, reflecting on her traumatic experiences. Her ex-husband, Dominique Pelicot, along with 49 others, faces charges related to multiple instances of rape while she was drugged. As the trial concludes, Pelicot criticized a ‘macho, patriarchal society’ and highlighted the devastating impact of the abuse, which included being drugged and exploited. This case has ignited widespread outrage and discussions about male violence in France.
