Women are disproportionately affected by TBIs resulting from domestic abuse. They make up the majority of survivors who experience these traumatic head injuries, making this a problem with clear gender implications.

“Sexual exploitation does not discriminate based on gender,” attorney Brittany Henderson told CNN in a statement. “Men have been exploited in the modeling and fashion industries for decades. The movement ignited a fire in our country that empowered survivors to come forward and be heard. This case is paramount to expanding the movement across genders into the movement, and eradicating s*xual exploitation in the entire industry, starting with Abercrombie & Fitch.”

Dozens of men have filed a class action lawsuit alleging Abercrombie & Fitch was complicit in a multi-decade-long s*x trafficking scheme carried out by the fashion company’s former CEO.
