History of Feminism

That's why violence against women is not treated more seriously. If any other crimes between any other two groups happened in the same numbers that men kidnap, beat, rape, and murder women, it'd be treated as shocking and horrifying and people would be demanding an end to the oppression and violence. Just the fact that the leading cause of death for pregnant women is being murdered by their partners - you'd think that would be enough to get people to treat it as a serious issue, but no.

Since it's happening to women it's just treated like background noise.

Someday I hope it changes.
