Literally crying hearing how French women applaud Gisele Pelicot every day as she walks out of court. #r4today
Everywhere around the world women watch & applaud her bravery too. She stood up for all of us.

In April 1987, Princess Diana of Wales shook hands with an HIV-positive man without gloves in front of the world's media.
