Women will never be equal as long as domestic violence is not taken seriously. Women are still being sold into slavery. The situation in Darfur is so tragic. Most religious institutions are headed by men, some of whom do their best to keep women subservient. It was not that long ago that young girls in Iraq had acid thrown on their faces. Men have done horrible things to women.

I recognize there are two sides to every story. Nonetheless, history is not kind to men in the way they have treated women.
