Violence

Violence

Violence against women is a worldwide problem and it, ranges from sterilization abuse to prescription drug abuse, battering and rape.  Thirty years ago most forms of violence against women were hidden under silence or acceptances.

The main reason is influenced by social attitudes & values that men are naturally superior to women; also the social structures have contributed to violence against women such as Legal system, community, family and friends.

To solve this problem we have to understand the male violence against woman, which is caused by psychological problem and unbearable life pressures and every woman has to protect herself by documenting what happens so she will contribute to stop this violence by calling the police if she sees or hears evidence of domestic violence. She should support a friend or family member who may face the same problem and all of us must raise our children to respect others, protect themselves and take a self-defense class if possible.
