Him hey thanks. Thanks thanks. Thanks for helping 40 percent of all women have experienced violence at the hands of their partners. Theyve been verbally abused beaten and raped. Or good of some have been subject to acid attacks or burned or mutilated. By others. Have been murdered. And. I want to thank you i thank. You. All for a word that was really one of my Early Childhood was very difficult i never knew my father my mother raised me by herself and that was hard. One to answer for doing that until the 5th grade i was a good student in 1999 i received a scholarship for secondary school. And thats when i got my 1st Marriage Proposal. Telling local officials of well i was physically mature for my age and people used to look down on me. They said i was born out of wedlock and had to marry quickly to save my honor they said that if i didnt id end up just like my mother. Fretted over little. And put it this way really so it took 3 years they kept telling her to marry me are poor but she refused she said i was too young and she wanted to send me to school a little late but. Were going to. Come to brooklyn was a good quality right in the world to be a product of the local there were lots of marriage negotiations but my mother was still opposed to the idea that the prospective husbands got angry and threatened us. They said if i cant marry her ill tell her. I was married when i was 14. I didnt know anything about men or intimacy they are starting a family. And we. Go a little bit you have chicken the ducks you always slaughter the one that looks the most mature. So thats how it was with me. Thank you. I. Thank you for last time we are stars one of them was one day my husband came home and said hed run out of money. And he wanted me to take out a microcredit loan i said i had no idea how to do that because i knew nothing about banks. Not bought me. From. Dr lovell dave he said my mother should do it. We had electrical cables hanging on the wall all over our house. And when i talked back to him. You know he flew into a rage and pulled down one of the cable or slowly he threw me onto the bed and doubled up the cable he was holding. Drizzle and he beat me as hard as he could. I begged him to stop i prayed to allah. But my husband kept pounding away so i had very long hair at that time and every time he hit me he pulled my hair again and again. He jack my hair down to my hips he slammed his elbows into my hips and back he beat me with a stick and kicked me. In the west african country of binny and it nearly one 5th of all females are subjected to genital mutilation. Most girls are married against their will after they start menstruating at around the age of 12. Many run away from their husbands and end up living on the streets before turning to prostitution. Or. Wrong. It was just. For. A nun miaowing if i wasnt forced to marry my husband early on he tried to seduce me but i stopped him so he told his mother that i didnt want him to get her parents to make me marry her or ill drink poison and kill myself. While we but my mother refused then his mother fell on her knees in front of me when she was quite old and i told her that i didnt want to marry her son. Welcomes she said that he was her only child and asked me at least to pretend that i loved him. Much of this reactor where my mother said that the woman had put a curse on me. All the people shouldnt behave like that in front of younger people think oh so i decided to marry him anyway she had put a curse on me and moved me noisome would be seen but. I thank. God. That i was. When i needed says when i was 16 i got pregnant for the 1st time though my husband and i moved to the city of para kuharich london but we couldnt live with anyone and his family. So i stayed with a friend of hers. My husband was violent right from the start he scolded humiliated and physically abused me even when i was pregnant. Well hold me a p. When she beat me the day before i gave birth. When the baby was born there were marks on his body where my husband had beaten me. You could see the imprint of his hands the baby was in great pain well as soon as you touched him hed start to scream no. Not me down maybe i dont know much you know much the midwife felt really sorry for me. She told my mother to go to the police because she knew how much she had suffered because of me of if you can do what my mother said she couldnt do that. Because it would lead to a divorce and that would ruin everything. I. Doubt. That it. Was it good that he. Was i was sad. Because i think that will be crucial in the book of genesis in the book of genesis chapter 2 verse 24 it says that god 1st created man and called him adam. Then he took a read from adam and created a give. And create enough to see. The bible says god gave and a more thorough. Over the woman from the creation than this authority was not created by adam but by god himself. Woman. Now by some white women should just be quiet. Does the man who makes the decisions fight. For general women is stupid. If you are married you know that already. Well when i get home i shouldnt have to tell my wife to wash my dirty clothes absolutely not my clothes should be already washed and dried so i can wear them right away. I dont want to have to argue about it to this. Invented desh almost all females are married against their will while theyre still children. More than half of all married bangladeshi women say theyve been subjected to domestic abuse. There are no laws to protect them from this kind of violence. Like. A mobile i want to know how this how did says that muslim girls over the age of 10 must be segregated from the rest of society and they must also cover their bodies. Live off the entire body must be covered including the head in the face thats what it says in the koran. No part of a womans body must be visible to walkers. Will only husbands are allowed to see their wives uncovered. A summit of world and women off the beaten from talking to anyone except their husbands or family unless their husband gives his permission i mean those are the rules of purdah. That men will do in the women are not allowed to go out in public without their husbands. Or if a woman has children they must go. Shes not allowed to go out by herself. You know holly to me. In the sun you want dont i look in the senate i didnt have a child for 3 years. Thats why my husband physically abused me. Kool aid often beat me hard pushed my head under the bed and pound my back and box i was absolutely one out both physically and mentally. So we spent almost all my mothers money on medical examinations. And those tests shows that i could technically have children. It was my husband who was infertile. So but the doctors also pointed out that i was much too young to get pregnant. The physical abuse continued my husband wouldnt give me any food for 7 or 8 days at a time my mother came to visit once and found me crying outside behind the house so i soon divorced my husband and looked with my mother for a year. Away from myself but it was those who did was what it was to us 11. Years i i. I. Was there for them a collector later my aunt offered me a new Marriage Proposal she said the man was ok and wealthy. At that time that i had no one to take care of me no father or brother so out of the models out i wasnt even 18 yet and i got married for the 2nd time was who said quite bluntly my future husband was 45 years old im sort of after the wedding but i discovered that this man had serious mental and physical problems. He started we couldnt work couldnt take care of himself at the hospital. And. I dont want to put them in when i 1st saw him and person i fainted and i didnt wake up for 5 hours. It. Was. Quite a long year he slept with me whenever he wanted but i told myself that this was just part of being his wife. And it was awful so i got my body felt like it was on fire but i couldnt tell anyone. Its hot as one so i just held my breath as if i was dead for. They always thought that when it came to sex he was insatiable. He wanted it all the time. When he penetrated me it felt terrible work but i couldnt say anything. About it he demanded sex every day whenever he felt like it but he always took me by force for example while i was cooking in the kitchen. But the inlaws would come to visit and he dragged me into another room and have sex when he was insane. But i never walk over to democratic republic of congo has been plagued by violence for more than 2 decades. A total of half a 1000000 women have been raped. And large numbers of women have been kidnapped and never seen again. Thats when i think they probably into the house and stole everything when they were out of control i screamed please dont kill my children. And they asked where the childrens father was around. And i told them hes not here. But they ordered me to find him to bring him over right away and we hear some of them raise their knives and threaten to stop me. They pointed their guns at us. They grabbed me in the middle of the night tied me up and threw me out signed on they were yelling the whole time. They got their knives out and trying to kill me i thought they would kill me i didnt say anything. I just kept crying. Back with him. They came into the house and going on asked whether i knew where to find some young girls i refused to tell them. So they beat me up one of them punched me in the eye and someone said they should kill me but another one said that they were going to take the women into the forest and hand them over to the men whod been asking for them. As it were you know. Bad and we got there they came to the house and pounded on the door they shouted get up you idiot. Pounding on the ground. I said to myself church of jesus and one of them told me to get up and stab me with a knife. I screamed oh god who are they dont you. Have got to have that if they stop me here and here and here that route. Im for myself. And i kept screaming. When i collapsed on the floor. When our. Crack me to my feet untied me up. And i passed out because i lost so much blood. I was still bleeding and they kept stabbing me here and here. Like you crying oh jesus they just left me lying there i cant remember what happened after that. Im not playing. Im not that. Company but. That. Shes my property i hope that well have a good life but if she starts behaving badly even though i gave a cow to have parents nothing out of the deal. With i dont presume ruth. If she goes somewhere without my permission i cant call her my wife anymore. Because its. Every woman makes my bed the same way. The difference is in the way they make love with him if you go into the village and have good sex with a woman you can learn new techniques. But if you try them out on your wife she called you a male hole and a good woman has to accept the way that you make love so that you dont start chasing other women could swim but with a number of different a different kind of woman express a sexual desire openly shes not allowed to talk about her feelings it would mean a man can tell a woman he wants sex but a woman in contrast demand for it and. I think i see. Russia. Fellow. In the democratic republic of congo women do twice as much work as men on average. But they have no opportunity to earn their own money or to acquire property. I think that this is. I. Claim that. Such i. Get. Up to the hour i. Think i. Let. On to maybe i hustle and and i had nothing yeah yeah for me now and i got some food every once in a while i. Wish that ton of bad fuel just. As soon as he come home hed start beating me and yeah especially when he wanted to sleep with me and i didnt feel like it. Was like if i had sex with him one day and then the next and then id say im tired he beat me on the 3rd day thats right. Mom which i will have to you know whenever i saw him i panicked you know what i see are the new youre so afraid that your heart races and you bang your head against the wall. My dogs myself who you are really afraid of will see what role i mean i wasnt allowed to talk to anyone else i couldnt have fun with anyone old will go i couldnt go outside to talk to people and thats what he kept threatening me and then he beat me you know he was violent we got people really we going to see me and asked if you hold me one time he showed up at the apartment and asked me why were you outside with the neighbors how dare you i dont believe you had to talk to people you know and then you punch me in the face the men who. Are normal what can you put. That down to get out that theres no cure. For. This so i only saw our goal im. Like im going to digital you were born within the another time he beat me while i was bathing my infant son who had just been circumcised he smacked me in the forehead while my husband was beating me the child slipped out of my hands and fell into a bucket which he continued to beat me he pounded me with the bucket until it was completely bent out of shape. You want all. Female i wasnt wearing any clothes no shoes nothing i walked out of the apartment. And went to the Police Station. I screamed please help me my husband followed me and kept insulting me. That im going to let you have your lawsuit. Oh yes i think the police to help me on the one i asked them to come back home with me so i could pack up my things but they said that. Is nothing they can do the police dont take action how can we get men to change their behavior so lets see pontiacs. You see if you give women all the freedom they want they wont be able to handle it they have no morals and they cause trouble. Some people say that independent women are prostitutes. And proceeds you. Dont ever do my bit if you beat your wife so hard that she needs you youve got to have a good reason. If you find your wife in your home with another man it hurts and youve got to put a stop to it not. Going to the only pull you dont want to own so you beat the living daylights out of her and leave her lying on the floor thats what you should do if you catch your wife sleeping with another man. Window but. You cant throw a man out of his house while the women have houses. So men have the right to criticize. What he got out of this in the. Good old guy men dont want other men to see their wife naked even if shes outside your and we dont want strangers to see that oh yeah if a man finds his wife in the bushes he might suspect that shes having sex with another guy why when hes a man. And he can sleep with someone elses wife he will. He does that because he thinks he must dominate or. That men also cheat on their spouses but i wanted to get. The democratic republic of congo is a major supplier of cotton or which contains the element 10 to one this element is widely used in the manufacture of personal electronic devices. Congos cotton Mining Industry is controlled by or. Rebels who use profits from sales of the war to finance their military operations. Was. Told it. Was going to. Give it. To editing it is only going to when those men were filthy animals. They raped us. If we didnt want to have sex with them they took us by force. They tore off our clothes i may just do things that we didnt want to do. They spat on us you cant imagine how awful these people were. And when i 1st saw them my heart sank and kept beating faster and faster. It was like id seen a lion coming out of the jungle. Or was it but i dont know which is im a couple they forced the women to lie on the ground in rows. One woman right next to the other had all the way and then they raped us right there in public. They moved from one woman to another talk about god and. Some women covered their face out of shame and the men beat them and you and yelled at them dont cover your eyes that your every one who did was beaten up and it was she and we were forced to watch all that we do and you know. But if youre milo would look theyd bring in a boy and order him to have sex with his mother and. They said that if he refused theyd kill him but weve seen a lot of suffering so much. Before. The rebels ordered us to pick up some sticks. They said that one of the men was going to be killed that day and we were going to do it. They werent going to shoot that man or stabbed him to death. They said that we were going to beat him to death with our sticks. The rebels surrounded the victim and ordered him not to cry. They said that if we cried theyd shoot us we started beating him and kept beating him until he was dead when we moved and. Yes i have been up on civil to few one day my husband attack me with us and im with you when i get this child was 3 years old at the time. I finished cooking and washing the dishes i went outside to dump some dirty water to watch it when i came back to where the child said daddys lying on the bed under the musty to net way under what i didnt believe him when i looked in there he wants me i was terrified because he had this wild look on his face his eyes were glowing he looked like a monster. I turned my back on him to tend to the child thats when my husband attacked me i fell down he tried to force my mouth open he pressed his fingers into my cheeks while i clamped my teeth together. I cried out like a sheet he took a can of liquid and pulled the contents into my mouth. But i felt a Burning Sensation and i wanted to scream. But i kept quiet i mean because if i tried to speak i probably swallowed the acid when he actually thought i had swallowed it and was going to burn my insides. Then he put on some gloves and port the rest of the acid over my body. He dropped it into my eyes and the rest of my face. Covered my whole body with it i was lying motionless on the floor then my husband left the apartment and locked the door from the outside while being a would be to have your watson handle call would you do. You. Get my mouth felt like it was on fire i dont know the pain was unbearable dont you know. It is true but yes started to fall out because it was covered with acid our jacked my clothes were shredded sore so i have to walk around as nearly naked and some medical a few we. Felt like it was burning then and there was more of. That. Comment on. The Police Arrested my husband but later let him go. Hes been housing me and the children and we have nowhere else to go. You bring out all he knows where we live if erekat. Hes always driving around the neighborhood looking for se me you know and im nervous all the time because im afraid to act and im always afraid even when i leave the house during the day or my mother doesnt want me to go out alone so when i do go out i always take 2 other people with me. Hes very very even maci want to kill me and my children and i cant even go out to the toilet alone at night because of him very very i have to wake up my sister or brother to go along with me. But my husband is always hanging around the neighborhood that the. Maze of im not safe here the night for my children. He follows the kids all the time and threatens them thats just terrible back to you on that was still afraid and because of him were not safe here. Who did not buy security. I only want to show murder he kept having sex with me monoliths my life was a living hell of the one i have there one hour and it was like my family who literally changed the marriage had thrown me into a lake of fire. Sometimes i thought it would be better to take poison or hang myself. But i didnt. My mother says that if i had been a good wife my marriage wouldnt have gone so wrong and now it was my fate to live alone. She said that if i had really wanted to be married i would not have left my husband. When i saw that my daughter had been badly abused i decided to take her to my home but after about 2 weeks some people came unfortunate back to her husband. That i knew then i talked to some village elders and told them what happened. I listened to their advice and decided i was not going to get her back. Its them there is no justice in our society that we have to live with that if i complain people saying that my daughter is a bad woman and im just making things worse my name it and i walk out of the. Land and that is how the women have to deal with the huge amount of stress caused by their husbands and in the woods is they dont go there her she can if they have no education. They have to rely completely on those people. Who need worship and when you get in the or when the girls go to school the boys harass them along the way. They look at the stuff that happens a lot these days and thats why a lot of girls dont go to school. Is that theyre afraid that theyll lose their own because theyre being harassed by boys. In bengali culture its impossible for boys to lose their own author. Of that we could only house 2 women on it. And when it does they become outcasts in society that it was very rare that the mother but this mother had a daddy. That was that out. Oh yes i was. I mean that out. There oh no. I mean yes 7. Ive. Heard that. You know. He did come out of the cameras today i can talk about what happened to me. I was unable to do that before. I couldnt even talk to myself about it. But now i can talk to anyone anywhere at the market for example but. Thats all i want to get something i have a lot more courage. And im going to ive been able to climb out of that swamp. Ive come a long way thanks to the people at the archie project. They helped me make some changes in my life and i think ive done really well so i want to see in some of us how you live on top of that you know that was the mascot a little bit of what the article was that. He is going to do to somebody. Completely. And. I. Would like. To. Think. I took it to you to. Explain. Why she had more luck than not when we got here i learned that my son. Had died. One in what we want we went through some really hard times. And then a little later. My daughter was kidnapped. Because they didnt know what to do i had to live in the countryside life was terribly hard thats all i can say yet my husband left me and moved to. You stayed there for a long time because he didnt want to take me back. Before that he and i had a good life we got along but when these problems turned up his personality changed he wanted to shut me out of his life and he claimed that i supported the hutu rebels. Because. One of. The middle man dont call me if i dont know where to go i live outdoors in the countryside. I have no husband and no children with mine they killed my child in. Socal and so now i sit here alone i have no place to live im worried and miserable. They have to deal with a lot of different problems we have to look for food with you did clothes and a place to sleep we dont have a proper home at the time we just live outdoors. Like the birds. And calling. To write you have my children made fun of me and avoided me. They said that i wasnt human anymore when young i asked myself how my children could treat me like that to hand in a blanket and i wondered what my parents would say when they found out about it you want to know what happened my husband was doing the devils work when he started spreading those rumors about making. Sure that my children believed him that i give him some food but he refused that he said he didnt want to be served by someone who lived in the forest. For me put my children no longer thought of me as their mother. It was like they thought that i was dead. When i laugh and that it was any either. These events left scars on our hearts. And to this day when i hear a noise like a knock on the door or a cannon falling over im frightened and my heart starts beating faster i feel awful my heart is beating faster because im afraid that something awful will happen again. You know its hard to pin the target of the attorneys experiences have also affected our Mental Health one on one and i feel fine right now but later i might start crying because i feel threatened. Its like ive gone crazy ok and it will shift if you can. Why they were that. The. Was the way that. I am i want often well i must say when School Starts youre going to have to learn how to raise guinea pigs while you give one to each child in your family.
