Discussion on violence against women

According to (Kelly, 1997; Radford et l, 2000) women violence in terms of oppression, sexualassault, rape, sexualharassment and all forms of violence against women and children as a result of men with religious and cultural based lives as they grew up, and he further suggests that the violence does not affect women in poor or third world countries but women in all social classes, races, religions and nationalities.

According to (brownmiller1976;Radford et al ,2000) violence against women is due to cultural and political issues that term women not be have equal rights to men. The political and social imbalances has led to wide spread of violence against women globally

Since 1970s -2000s Scotland and the United Kingdom has developed laws and enacted them to fight against the violence against women for example the Scottish women aid act in 2002, also variance campaigns worldwide have been set to fight the issue of girl child labour and sexual harassment

earlier studies done by researchers show that the justice system in many nations did not term women rape cases as a serious issue they were termed as false allegations and there dismissed as providing evidence was rather difficult

According to (jennings1990,Henderson and MacKay 1990)stated that women came up with movements in the 1980s to challenge the male violence against women since then laws have been included in Scotland’s constitution to deal with violence against women.

Key actions to take

1.I would sensitize men on the importance of women in society which include taking care of men, offspring’s and the households I would also sensitize the society on the importance of women contribution on the longrun economic development of the nation as wellas their individual households

2. I would also encourage agencies and organizations that deal with sensitization on men violence against women to seek resources to enhance its activities and also seek further incites globally on how to tackle issues arising from the modern trends that involve women mishandling.

3. I would also make commercial advertisements and forums on the social media that will encourage women to pursue activities and jobs that society deems to be only for men this will go a long way to build their self-esteem as well build their respect among men

4. I would also campaign for the enactment of laws that support gender equity for the betterment for society in future.
