The Archbishop of Canterbury said: \u201cTestimony after testament from women over recent days have shown us something we have known and ignored for far too long: the profound impact of the sin of male violence, intimidation, harassment, sexism and abuse carried out against women. It is these sins \u2013 and the culture that perptuates and condones them \u2013 that need our urgent repentance, our fervent prayer, and our resolute action as men.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Bishop of Gloucester, Rachel Treweek, told BBC Radio 4\u2019s Sunday Programme that Ms Everard\u2019s death was a tipping point, and acknowledged the Churches\u2019 role in fostering a culture of male dominance. \u201cWe have used scripture to make women submissive to men. . . We have contributed to that pervasive culture that women and girls are lesser than men and boys and we have got a big part to play in redressing that,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
