In the United States society fails to notice the importance of women and the.
Women in the United States do not realize how grateful they are.
to be living the lives that such do. In many poverty stricken countries, women are.
forced to do a multiple amount of work, and acts to their body in order to keep the.
male satisfied. Human rights violations against women have for too long been denied .
the attention and concern of international organizations, national governments, traditional.
human rights groups, and the press. Meanwhile, hundreds of millions of girls and women.
around the world continue to endure fatal human rights abuses. .
Women in countries such as Bangladesh, Brazil, Ecuador, Egypt, India, and .
Pakistan are being mutulated and abused. They are not being abused however for .
unlawfuland cruel things, but they are being abused for the simple acts of continuing.
.
their educations, women who run away from abusive homes, and even some women are.
being killed for not being virgins. A woman was shot five times by her husband because.
she ran away from him after he continuosly beat and raped her. Another woman had her .
throat slit because of the fact that she was suspected and wrongly accused of commiting.
adultery. She was only speaking to a man whom had lived in their village, and her.
husband wrongly jumped to conclusions and thought she was cheating so he decided to .
kill her. A young girl was beaten to death by her younger brother because her older .
brother had raped her. Such women had no one to turn to and no place to hide. They did .
not have the family who would support them nor did they have friends who they could.
count on. Most women need to be able to talk to someone and have someone to come .
to when they have problems.
All of these murders are based on the belief that a woman is the property of her .
family when this should not be considered true. Never should it be true that a woman has .
to live her life in order to please a male.
