The أناMassage Parlor Prostitutessocial media phenomenon #MeToo has gone global.
People have used the hashtag in Europe, Australia, the Middle East and beyond to talk about sexual abuse.
SEE ALSO: #MeToo: Hashtag shared by Alyssa Milano encourages personal stories of sexual assault and harassmentThe #MeToo posts blew up in the U.S. after actor Alyssa Milano wrote "Me too" on her Twitter feed on Sunday as more and more women accused producer Harvey Weinstein of sexual assault and harassment. Since that post, the hashtag was used in 1.2 million tweets, a Twitter spokesperson said Thursday.
Since it went viral, the true origins of the expression were traced back to activist Tarana Burke, who started using it 10 years ago to support women of color surviving sexual abuse.
Google Trends data shows the top countries looking up "#metoo" are Sweden, Canada, Norway, Denmark, and the United States. Outside of the U.S., global interest in the hashtag has spiked by 2,200 percent -- with countries making it their own.
Similar to #MeToo, the French variation means denounce or call out your pig. It has spread since the Weinstein story broke.
Like the U.S. hashtag, the French one has prompted many anecdotes and honest discussions about everyday harassment.

In places like Australia, Japan, China, and India, the #MeToo posts using the English-language hashtag are coming in strong. In the UK, women are sharing stories about abuse from their childhood and the workplace.
Even the Kolkata police force in India noticed and was perturbed by the trend.
In China, outcry over an editorial deeming #MeToo a Western issue shows how this is a global truth, different cultural values be damned.
No matter the language, "me too" is universal.
