End Violence against Women

Women should be informed about the nature of abusive relationships, safe dating practices, and sexual harassment, sexual assault, and the rights of women since many have been victims in any way, and due to ignorance they cannot report it.

Violence against women is about power and control. Violence against women cuts across race, religion, income, class and culture. Violence against women is deeply embedded in all cultures, so that millions of women consider it a way of life.

However, according to some males, women should be treated as human beings, with dignity, respect and love. It is a shame that men abuse women; men must denounce by all means any violence against any women, and treat women as equal. Real men should not hit women as will gain nothing from it due to the fact that strong men don’t beat women, only cowards do so.

Women reflect our mothers and research has shown that to abuse a woman is to abuse your mother, and the concept of abusing your mother is a terrible one. Violence against your mother is a terrible thing. Violence against women is violence against God and violence against women should be fought by demonstrating dignity and fairness in all personal and public relations with women. It is from these immediate personal interactions that the ripple effect of equality will be spread. The simple key, however, is that every male has to commit himself to his behaviour.

It should be noted that some women stay in an abusive relationship because of number of reasons such as many women believe that they love their partners; they think that the relationship has its good pints, it’s not all bad they tell themselves; many women live in the hope that it will change and many others are afraid that the threats by their partners to kill them or the family will become a reality.
