Reasons for signing

I call on all South African men to make this pledge to be part of the effort to end gender-based violence. As individuals and as members of families and communities, we need to change our attitudes and behaviour. We need to take responsibility for our actions. As men, we must pledge to never raise a hand against a woman, to treat women as equals, to respect their rights and to treat them with dignity. If we are to end violence against women and children, we must work together as a society. The solution starts with us.

In our attempts to end the scourge of Gender-based Violence and protect the rights of the victims, let us join hands to register our collective intolerance against GBV. We call on all civil society formations, communities and every individual to take a stand. Let us all support the initiative of President Ramaphosa and sign the pledge. Let us all be counted in.

I pledge to be a role model, and teaching my young boys that violence is not always the answer, and we must protect women at all costs

I commit myself to always playing a part in creating a space where women can feel human and not feel like an object. The empowerment of women is the empowerment of a society where all can feel human.

I Pledge ❤️🤍

I will make sure I stand up for women of our Country. No women will be abuse in my present. i will protect them all the times. The solution starts with me.

Stop abuse and violation of women and children

Fathers - teach your sons to be the men who earn the love and respect of women!

Let us work together to end violent against women and children. Let us talk with them in a good manner and give them a chance to express their feelings.

I here by sign this pledge as a token of appreciation to woman abuse and will serve them with unlimited effort.

Consider any woman as your grandma, mother or sister and treat them all with the gentleness.

Let's love and protect our women.

Our organisation #StandUpSA🇿🇦 is available to assist men who are struggling in their relationships, in order to prevent GBV.

I Pledge thank you.

this should extent to women as well. though violence is not justfied, there are alot of women who are emotionally abusing our SA men. Most men are bruised and broken because of being disrespected, embrassed, rediculled and most importantly being subject to infidelity by our promiscious women. For this to stop, women should learn to walk away from a reletionaship if not happy. they must stop fooling men, they must stop cheating on thier men. they must stop using men for econimic survival. we need to be honest and be frank about these things, most men use the violence as the final...

I pledge to be a role model in my community and to call out GBV at all times.

Men lead and protect, women nurture. As much as we pledge to protect them, women must pledge to nurture and not look down on men.

I pledge to be a role model in my community and to call out GBV at all times.

I wake up, I go to sleep if I wrong any women I pray my soul is for the lord to keep.

WE MEN SHOULD BE THE PROTECTOR OF WOMAN AND CHILDREN NOT THE ONES BRINGING PAIN
