Truth About Domestic Violence
Domestic violence is one of the most sensitive topics one can talk about. A huge amount of women tolerate domestic violence and they don’t feel comfortable while talking about but here are some truths I wanted to share. 1- You don’t have to be married to suffer from domestic violence as fathers/brothers can be violent too. 2- Women from the lower class are not the only objective of domestic violence. It’s present there is middle and high class too. We often hold responsible women for not talking about it but a girl who has grown up in an abusive household is used to getting beaten doesn’t see it as something different. And not just women, kids can be the target of domestic violence as well. Men who feel superior to women beat them thinking they have power over them. It’s not just unethical but is alarming from a psychological perspective as well. The fact that’s it’s so widespread in Pakistan shakes me to the core wondering when we’ll be free of this inhumanity.
