THE VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN



In the following subject we will expose about a very important and interesting topic which is actually affecting our society and mainly most  of the women around the world  are suffeting domestic violence. We hope that you like it!

The United Nations defines violence against women as 'any act of gender-based violence that results in, or is likely to result in, physical, sexual or mental harm or suffering to women, including threats of such acts, coercion or arbitrary deprivation of liberty, whether occurring in public or in private life.

THE CAUSES AND CONSECUENCES :


ü Alcoholism: an endless number of cases record that a large percentage of women who are abused by their marital partners are under the influence of alcohol.

ü Lack of awareness among the inhabitants of a society believe that this is the best way of doing things: mistreating and battering to the women.

ü Strong ignorance of not knowing there is better way to solve things: they don´t know that the best way to solve a social phenomenon is talking and analyzing what are the causes  and then try to fix it.

ü Failing to control impulses: we are often impulsive, generating violence, we do not know how to work things out.

ü Lack of understanding between couples, the incompatibility of characters: intra-family violence is a major cause of violence there, a child who grows up in an atmosphere of conflict and little  harmonious will be, sure, a  problematic person and with few personal principles.

ü Drug abuse: another cause of violence, many people take drugs in order to be what they are not in reality, to escape from reality causing so much violence, if they can´t afford to buy their product'' and hit'' kill even his own mother.

Consecuences:

The consecuentes of the violence against the women are the following:
ü Mental health issues
ü Intencional homicide
ü Death as a result of permanent injury
ü AIDs
ü Suicide (used as a last resort to escape violence)
