Violence is violence. If the victim is male or female is not important, but for people like YOU violence is a problem only when poor little women are the victims. Disgusting...

99 out of 100 battered women all have one thing in common. None of them knew how to shut their mouth.

Last year 50,000 women comitted paternity fraud, 3 million falsely claimed rape and another 2 million falsely claimed they were beaten by their male intimate partners. 3000 falsely claimed abuse as a mitigating factor in the murders of their husbands, and a partridge in a pear tree. Yes, I made those numbers up. Who made your numbers up?How about some references for those numbers you provided before you bore me to death.

women are subordinated because of variety of reasons, including culture, biological, religious, and patriarchal policies, the latter, is also the most important reason for a woman to believe shes weak and have less value, and for man to feel that he is doing a woman a favor by accepting he in the human race, so no matter how he might treat her he still has the upper hand,

Women get abused because they are, generally speaking, smaller and not as physically strong as men. Ergo, they make easy targets for abusive men. I am not saying that is natural or orderly!!!! I am only pointing it out!!!!
As for Africa, that is a Stone Age tradition that should have been abolished before it began, but it hasn’t.
In China, much the same as Africa concerning the barbaric origins.
Same with India.
Much of that is tied to religion and tradition. It is cruel, it is sad, it is a wonder that anyone ever survives, but it does happen.

In India women are killed because the family of the women pays a dowry for her to marry a man. The man family kills the woman so he can marry again, or because the family didn’t pay them enough.

The 6000 African genital mutilation is a cultural practice like circumcision. You didn’t even mention that China has an uncountable amount of female infanticide, because the government limits the number of children a family can have. It is their culture to value boys more than girls, so they kill the baby girls so they can try for a boy.

Because women let them. If we stood up for ourselves more then we could change things. Most of the things that go on in the other countries are because of ancestors. Because women did not stand up for themselves back then it makes it harder for the women today. Look at the women in the US that took a stand, now we can vote and do a lot of things because we stood out for ourselves.

As far as being raped. Sometimes it is being in the wrong place at the wrong time… But for those who go jogging at night alone in the woods (yes – some women do this) and get raped – Sorry, that is their fault for not thinking smarter.
