Red Flag Registry

Are you dating a guy who constantly compares you to his ex-girlfriend? Does your boyfriend go through your phone whilst you’re in the shower? Is your date judging you for how many people you’ve slept with?

These are all examples of red flags that many women and girls experience daily. We may laugh off some of these red flags as ‘normal behaviour’ but they can often contribute towards a culture of misogyny, harassment, and sexual violence, which can lead to more serious violent acts.

Not quite sure what a red flag is?

A red flag is a sign when something's not right.

Whether you’re in a relationship or just getting to know someone, red flags are types of behaviour that make you feel uneasy or disrespected – often a gut feeling telling you to steer clear.

A red flag could be a one-off incident, such as an inappropriate comment, or a pattern of behaviour such as constantly referring to ex-partners as ‘crazy’ or ‘psycho’. Red flags can also be more violent and dangerous incidents – verbal and emotional abuse, possessiveness or anger issues.
