Violence Against Women
Women all over the world are abused on a daily basis for a variety of reasons, or at least for one.
Men abuse women every day for inconvenient reasons. Following a survey of a few women from various backgrounds, the average number of violated women for the following reasons was determined:
- A husband is beating his wife if she burns the food 9.20 on average
- A husband is beating his wife if she argues with him 19 on average
- A husband is beating his wife if she goes out without telling him 20.5 on average
- A husband is beating his wife if she neglects the children 23.46 on average
- A husband is beating his wife if she refuses to have sex with him 13.21 on average
- A husband is beating his wife for at least one specific reason 33.22 on average
Domestic violence legislation exists in at least 155 countries (World Bank 2020). Nevertheless, challenges in upholding these laws persist, restricting the safety and justice of women and girls. Despite the fact that violence is adequately prevented, it happens and goes unnoticed.
As a result of violence, women’s overall well-being suffers, and they are unable to fully participate in society. It has an impact on their families, their communities, and the entire country. So, how can we assist?
