What the petition asks

Make misogyny a hate crime.
Women are sick of being harassed and assaulted. Women don't feel safe being alone at night because of it. Women are under attack because of an unchallenged culture of misogyny, and it has to stop. Make misogyny a hate crime, so women start to have more confidence to live their lives fully. Make misogyny a hate crime so that police forces can deal with it. Make it a hate crime to transform our culture into one where misogyny is no longer acceptable.
