Ian Connor Was a Problem Before He Fought a Famous Man
"Believe women."
Those two words have formed a prevalent phrase in pop culture, as more rape and abuse allegations have sprouted up on more social media timelines. “Believe women” became widespread through internet culture because too many people were doing the opposite: not believing women when they’d bravely come forward and share their personal stories of physical, emotional and mental abuse.
Many would give the men charged with such horrid acts the benefit of the doubt and discredit the severity of the claims. Most of the time, this would involve standing behind a public figure rather than believing the women that spoke out and reported this public figure’s behavior. It’s an epidemic that continues to live on in spite of the “believe women” movement, and is now at the heart of the story of Ian Connor.
