NO is a NO

Dedicated to women.

This is a painting of St.Agatha by Giovanni Busi of Italy.

She did not want to marry...She wanted to live a life of chastity...But being a pretty woman with many suitors, her ‘No’ was unacceptable...
Result: The Roman governor of Sicily had her breasts cut off.
She died in prison.

Dedicated to @bbookproject & all women.
