Denim Day: The Jeans Alibi that Sparked a Global Movement

This Denim Day special is live with Dana and Chloe on Red Flags and Body Bags. What started as one 18-year-old girl’s r*pe case in Italy in 1992 became a worldwide symbol of resistance when the Supreme Court overturned her attacker’s conviction — because she was wearing tight jeans. The court literally ruled that “it is nearly impossible to slip off tight jeans without the active collaboration of the person wearing them.” Twenty-six years later in Cork, Ireland, a defense barrister held up a 17-year-old r*pe victim’s lace th*ng in open court and told the jury: “You have to look at the way she was dressed. She was wearing a th*ng with a lace front.” Both cases used clothing as “evidence” of consent — and both sparked massive protests that gave birth to Denim Day. In this powerful live episode we break down: * The full stories behind the “jeans alibi” and the “thong trial” * How victim-blaming still happens in courtrooms today * The red flags every listener needs to recognize * Why wearing denim on the last Wednesday of April is more than just a trend We also share practical ways to spot and push back against clothing-based victim-blaming, plus resources for survivors. Resources (pinned in comments & show notes): * National Sexual Assault Hotline (US): 1-800-656-HOPE (4673) or rainn.org * Colorado Coalition Against Sexual Assault * DenimDay.org If you or someone you know has been impacted by sexual violence, you are believed. What you were wearing was never consent. 🎧 Subscribe and turn on notifications so you never miss an episode. https://sites.google.com/view/red-flags-and-body-bags/home [https://sites.google.com/view/red-flags-and-body-bags/home] #DenimDay #ThisIsNotConsent #VictimBlaming #RedFlags #SexualAssaultAwareness #redflagsandbodybags #survivor

Listener discretion is strongly advised. If you need to step away, we understand. This week: the unforgettable story of Mary Bell Vincent (now Mary Bell McGriff). At just 15 years old, she was picked up while hitchhiking in California by Lawrence Singleton. What followed was hours of r*pe, t*rture, and a hatchet att*ck that severed both of her forearms.
