@edelblog Vogue Germany puts Gisele Pelicot on the cover of the magazine. Gisle Pelicot is a woman who was drugged by her husband, Dominique Pelicot. For 10 years, the latter made his wife put to sleep by more than 80 men in his home, while filming them. Yesterday, the maximum sentence was requested against Dominique Pelicot: 20 years in prison. Yesterday was the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women. Shame must change sides! #fyp
