Opis

In nearly all civilizations in history women have been subjected to the vilest cruelty by man, being restricted in scope of action and movement to focus their energies to the welfare of their masters. In the West today, while women enjoy freedom of equality to men, in a number of countries subjection of women and oppression continues to live on under the name of religious doctrine. In recent years honour killings have reached epidemic proportions with an estimated 10,000 killings in Pakistan alone, female children attacked by Taliban terrorist for attending schools, and widespread practice of female genital mutilation in Africa.
