when when i was a child, we were always taught and that if you are no longer a virgin, by the time you were married, then you are worthless. and it's the same thing that also my perpetrators said. when he raped me, i believe that for many, many years, and that kept me quiet for many, many years. i am got big idea. i am an artist, an cultural activist from indonesia. and i also a sexual assault survivor. i experience sexual violence for the 1st time when i was 6 years old. i began to have a lot of mental health issues growing up. so when i was 1314, i started

a drinking using drugs. ah, so i broke down and then i went into recovery for my addiction in 2009. and that's when i felt that hey, this music that i've been playing, it has been tremendously helpful. him healing me. what if i can use this to say something to other women who experienced what i experience so that they can be helped through my music as well? ah yeah, but the like you will not sub severely mahogany be what? yeah. let him up in a society,

a lucky hagi dordy feminine. ah, most women aunt heard most women don't have the agency to be able to speaker, and they're not even given the platform of the space to do it. you know, and these are women who, who are screaming inside. but they're, they're not heard. for those of us who can, we should speak up and i think it's as simple as that. ah, my name is young t smile. i'm a feminist artist based in malaysia and i paint to women in the nude to take away the narrative from a pottery arkell definition of woman's body that is sexual. that is huge,

that is dirty. that is shameful. arms or that can only be virginal and i reclaiming that keys and bringing a feminist perspective to how it looks like i art helps give you the imagination of what an alternative reality could look like. ah lay fairway to cite the me a call thought be a bad boy be if not, you know now i've walk yellow that they is hillary bigger thought thought also with will run a google id. i think it's like a bread weekly been megan this year. the hand me volume on it. i had just never all act. yeah. i just need not though. go to the i her was gilbert. um only one person. but yeah,

i didn't want people to know exactly what i was writing about in 2012 was the 1st time that i met other survivors. i felt that that was my turning point. came out as a survivor where i felt like i cannot be implicit any more. so the lyric becomes more out words and i feel like i have evolved a lot and i'm very proud of that. i wrote the song for the past school or my body, my authority, the music video was very powerful because we asked 39 women to write statements about their own bodies on their bodies. oh, if you are a woman anywhere in the world, you struggle with having ownership of your own body because it's so objectified, i always believe that music has really, really tremendous power because we have

a really big platform. if we choose it to say something bored ah, with i grew up in a family of strong women. however, existing as a malay person born into the religion of islam. of course, patriarchy is the environment that i exist in with. when i started to brew as a human being in this world theme that might police in it wasn't what i thought it should be. and that was the trigger of me trying to fight it. it's

a very simple concept of painting women who aren't thin and white and aren't necessarily able bodied i'm telling young girls that what you're seeing in popular culture is not the only model of, of how a woman should look like. 8 ah, ah, i realize that i have the advantage of having music as a medium for my activism because actually wisdom should be imbedded in whatever it is you do. if you are a teacher, take your activism to the classroom, take it to the company as you lead, take it everywhere, the message of equality a. so what we have to change is to society. we have to make it

a difference. you can find it within your own little spheres of life to take those those steps, but mika stand, don't just sit by and watch things go by. apathy is inexcusable. ah ah! ah ah,
