Her story is what opened up my world to what we now know to be, “Military Sexual Trauma&quot; or in my own words, &quot;Men and Boys' Violence Against Women and Girls (MABVAWAG). The documentary, “</span><a href="https://video.alexanderstreet.com/watch/the-silent-truth-crimes-against-women-in-the-military"><span>The Silent Truth: Crimes Against Women in the Military</span></a><span>” about women targeted and victimized by men in the military came out in 2010. The documentary, “</span><a href="https://www.pbs.org/independentlens/documentaries/invisible-war/"><span>The Invisible War</span></a><span>” on the same subject matter came out in 2012.</span></p><p><span><br/></span></p><p><span>I was deep in my Women's Liberation organizing work starting around 2009/2010 and uplifting these stories to anyone who would listen. As expected, it was almost all women who seemed to be concerned, who gathered in calls-to-action. However, after an increasing number of such stories arising, many women struggled to keep on organizing<span><span>—</span></span>overwhelmed by the grief of knowing. The men who showed up always disappeared first. Our groups got smaller over time, our ability to make change wrought with male roadblocks, and stories like LeVena's slowly disappeared from the headlines, and even from our own thoughts.</span></p><p><span><br/></span></p><p><span>Each day there is a new woman or girl violated, and we kept moving forward trying to keep up with all the male violators. It becomes impossible to hold vigil for each victim, but when we lose our memory of them, we also lose ourselves. I met military women, and would be reminded of these cases, which would lead to conversations about the current state of the United States military.</span></p><p><span><br/></span></p><p><span>In no time, these women would disclose to me how they were targeted by their male &quot;comrades&quot;, but never reported because they knew it would only destroy their own careers and there would never be any justice. They too, knew the story of LaVena Lynn Johnson, and the many other female military members who suffered attacks, so they made the careful, calculated decision to self-preserve in the name of survival. We often wonder why victims-survivors don't report. Well, this is why.</span></p><br/><p><span>It is now 2026. I read this article, one of many over the years, about how LaVena Lynn Johnson’s family have been fighting for the truth about her rape and murder to be named by our government. The same government that's itching to go into new wars. I shake inside knowing that with the current state of Males’ Anti-Female Violence, our sisters in the military are in more danger than ever.</span></p><br/><p style="text-align:center;"></p><p><span>I implore you to research LaVena Lynn Johnson’s story, if you don’t know about it. The details are so gruesome, that there is no trigger warning that can prepare you (and I don't give trigger warnings). To know that the male-manufactured legal system wrote her rape and murder off as “unverifiable” and as “suicide” tells us everything we need to know about the government <span style="font-style:italic;">we have always had in the United States</span>. To know that the truth that has emerged is only because LeVena's father and other family members personally paid for private investigations.</span></p><p><span><br/></span></p><p><span>If it were not for her family, their persistence, and their resilience, her story wouldn't even make it to any headline. There are no “good ol’ days”, or any form of “great” that we used to be. This country is born out of genocide, enslavement, and mass torturing, raping, and murdering of our sisters from the Americas and Africa. Just like all the other manmade &quot;civilizations&quot; around the world.</span></p><br/><p><span>What happened to our sister LaVena Lynn Johnson is a direct outcome of Males’ Anti-Female Violence carried out since Male Parasitism first took hold of our existence.</span></p><br/><p><span>So remember her name, her story, and make sure everyone you meet knows of LaVena Lynn Johnson, and her family that is still fighting for her justice.</span></p><p></p></div>

In a post made Tuesday, December 30th, 2025<span>—</span>the young womin details how predatory males are tagging the platform’s proprietary AI model, Grok, to generate non-consensual pornography using her likeness.<sup></sup></span><span>The womin lamented that men were actively using her personal photographs—images shared for social or professional reasons—as the raw material for digital sexual harassment.</span></p><p style="text-align:left;"><br/></p><p style="text-align:left;">Users would tag the AI directly under her posts, essentially ordering the machine to violate her in a public forum, turning her presence into the catalyst for her own degradation. This incident is not an isolated harassment tactic but a representative example of an escalating epidemic of digital sex crimes, where technology is being weaponized to automate the sexualized subordination of female people.</p><div style="text-align:left;"><button></button></div>
<p style="text-align:left;">Following this report, an investigation was launched into the scale of this digital sex crime epidemic. The findings reveal a horrifying phenomenon: the theft of the female image has become a streamlined, automated process. Thousands of photographs of womyn and girls—including children as young as eight—are being harvested from social media platforms to serve as training data for AI-generated pornography. <span>These tools allow males to treat the female form as a public resource, to be manipulated and consumed through digital forgeries that mirror the most violent and dehumanizing impulses of the pornography industry.<sup></sup></span></p><div style="text-align:left;"><button></button></div>
<p style="text-align:left;">Digital evidence from the platform demonstrates a calculated intent to humiliate and colonize the female body through increasingly graphic and violent prompts. In one instance, a user identified as &quot;Jack The Watcher&quot; tagged the AI under a photo of a professional-looking womin in a blazer, simply stating, &quot;Hey @grok put me in a bikini&quot;. While seemingly minor, this request is part of a broader spectrum of coercion where a womin’s chosen self-presentation is forcibly replaced with a male-designed sexual costume.</p><p style="text-align:left;"><br/></p><p style="text-align:left;">The depravity escalates in other threads. A user named &quot;jnk&quot; issued commands to Grok to &quot;turn the clothes into saran wrap&quot; and followed up with instructions to &quot;make her crouch down with her legs spread open&quot;. Another user, &quot;kurohitsughi,&quot; posted a selfie of a young womin holding flowers and demanded the AI &quot;put her in lingerie&quot; before instructing it to &quot;Open her mouth all the way&quot;. These prompts do not just sexualize the victim; they seek to control her physical posture and facial expressions, demanding a digital performance of submission.</p><p style="text-align:left;"><br/></p><p style="text-align:left;">The prompts also reveal a profound obsession with physical distortion and humiliation. One user, &quot;Memphis,&quot; instructed Grok to &quot;expand her chest by 100x and put her fully in bikini and g string and put a tattoo on her breast. Big penis was inside&quot;. Another, &quot;AIVen,&quot; used a photo of a well-known female singer to demand a &quot;cross-eyed, tongue out, drooling and salivating&quot; appearance, while describing the victim's body in degrading terms, requesting &quot;ballooned hips and ballooned thighs filled with saggy fat&quot;.</p><p style="text-align:left;"><br/></p><p style="text-align:left;">Perhaps most disturbing are the prompts involving overt violence and sexual fluids, such as one user’s demand to &quot;tie her up in chains and cover her in cum&quot;. This is not &quot;art&quot; or &quot;content generation&quot;; it is the digital reproduction of the violent sexual fantasies that fuel the pornography industry.</p><p style="text-align:left;"><br/></p><p style="text-align:left;">The targeting is not restricted to adults, either. In one captured exchange, a user named &quot;Sinner&quot; posted a photo of a girl in what appears to be a school setting, surrounded by other students in uniforms, and asked @grok to &quot;make her wear thin black bikini&quot;. The theft of childhood innocence through AI is a direct extension of the pedophelia and child abuse material already prevalent in the sex trade. Even when womyn try to protect themselves by reporting these violations, the institutional response is often one of indifference.</p><p style="text-align:left;"><br/></p><p style="text-align:left;">When a Japanese womin discovered that a male user had prompted Grok to modify her photo into a bikini-clad image, she filed a formal complaint. She was subsequently informed that the incident did not violate the platform's terms of service. This decision has effectively signaled to predatory males that womyn's digital likenesses are &quot;fair game.&quot; This institutional refusal to recognize digital violation as a crime has empowered these men to refine their tactics. They are now downloading social media references to create custom pornography that is subsequently sold on platforms like OnlyFans. These individuals are effectively monetizing the digital violation of womyn, promoting non-consensual content on the very platforms where the original images were stolen.</p><p style="text-align:left;"><br/></p><p style="text-align:left;">The marketing of female sexual degradation is desensitizing male populations to anti-female sexual abuse for the sake of entertainment and personal fulfillment. This creates a culture where the digital violation of a womin's likeness is effectively treated as a technological prank. While X's administration attempted to address the outcry by disabling the &quot;media&quot; tab on the Grok profile, the images are still being created, and the prompts are still being accepted by the AI. The problem is not the visibility of the media; it is the existence of a tool that allows men to digitally strip and violate womyn with a single line of text.</p><p style="text-align:left;"><br/></p><p style="text-align:left;">In response to these violations, a curious &quot;pincer&quot; attack has emerged. On one side, religious advocates from various traditions are exploiting the assault on womyn's rights to advocate for the erasure of female presence from the public sphere. They advocate for &quot;modesty&quot; as a shield, characterizing digital violence as an inevitable outcome for womyn who are visible in public spaces. They claim religion protects womyn from such things, effectively blaming the victim for her own violation because she chose to participate in social life.</p><p style="text-align:left;"><br/></p><p style="text-align:left;">Radical feminists, however, are sounding the alarm on this rhetoric. The proliferation of these digital attacks is a direct byproduct of a global sex trade that facilitates the objectification, hypersexualization, and dehumanization of female people. They assert that pornography is not &quot;free speech&quot;, and is instead a system of male dominance that relies on the graphic depiction of female people as inherently subhuman and subservient. When we analyze these AI prompts, we see exactly what has been warned about for decades: pornography is the theory, and rape—digital or physical—is the practice. The AI is simply a more efficient way to produce the propaganda that makes female inequality look like &quot;sexual freedom.&quot;</p><p style="text-align:left;"><br/></p><p style="text-align:left;">The problem is not the clothing a womin wears or her decision to post a photo; the problem is the male belief that they have a right to access, sexualize, and degrade any womin they see. The sex trade provides the blueprint for this belief, and the tech industry is now providing the machinery to scale it.</p><p style="text-align:left;"><br/></p><p style="text-align:left;">Current legislative measures, such as the &quot;TAKE IT DOWN Act,&quot; remain fundamentally insufficient because they shift the burden of labor onto the victim. Womyn are forced to act as their own investigators, manually hunting for their own violations across the vast expanse of the internet and requesting removals of content that should never have been generated in the first place. It relies on a womin being &quot;lucky&quot; enough to come across her own digital assault. This &quot;onus on the victim&quot; model is a failure of safeguarding.</p></div>
