    Damn! on the one hand, humans are doing innovation in science and technology and on the other hand, such barbaric things still exist in this world.

    these are so far out of my experience as to seem unreal but then I see the path my society is going and this appears to be a destination that some people want.

    After running away from her first marriage (she was married at 13). She finally got a divorce and then was told to marry her cousin who was literally coming out of prison.

    How can someone care so little for their own kids. Absolutely vile.

    That’s the amount of control over women that American conservatives dream of.

    I sort of feel like if you choose to dance to celebrate the death of your innocent teenage relative, then you, along with whatever culture spawned you, don’t really deserve to exist.

      I feel you, but nobody can lose his right to exist because nobody should be allowed to make that decision. You are criticizing that they decided she was not allowed to exist and in the same sentence you take that right upon you top decide they should not exist.

      To be frank: they need to be locked up, educated and reformed to protect society from them.

        nobody can lose his right to exist

        Rights apply to everybody, even people who don’t deserve them. I said they don’t deserve to exist, not that they didn’t have the right to exist. It’s an important distinction.

        A person who doesn’t deserve to exist should thank their lucky stars that they were born in a time and a place when society will let them exist, anyways.

          Tbf the labeling of child soldiers is kinda misleading considering that the vast majority of them are 15-17 years old. At that age you can join most military organizations around the world with parental permission. Alternatively most countries have military schools, where active duty military personnel are training teens to become soldiers.

    “… in that car with three men from the family that was supposed to be her circle of safety.” In that society, no, they are not supposed to be her saftey net. Men aren’t even the same species in that society. People ask how could they… They don’t consider women as people.

    Even in the western society, women generally have to live multiple lives. In public they are supposed to be beautiful and smiling all the time. In the bedroom they are supposed to be slutty (but only for their man). With children they are supposed to be saintly. In the home they are supposed to have the managment skills few CEOs possess.

    Men these days are supposed to have only two personalities. At work and mixed company they are supposed to treat women like people and respect them. In the locker room, with their buddies, or behind closed doors, not so much.
    That is why in some places, unmarried women are not supposed to be alone with a man. Because the men want to remove the “at work and mixed company” part so that they can drop one of those personalities. This murder is the result of taking away the time when women are supposed to be treated like people, and letting the men lean into the worst personality they can have.

      While I can’t speak for the female perspective personally, nor can I pretend to speak for all men, I find the perspective you are presenting to be quite the generalization. There’s a reason people were outraged about Trump’s “locker room talk” excuse for his remark about “grabbing women by the pussy”, it’s certainly not the societal standard for men to become misogynistic molesters when they are in a safe space.

        I mean… It does seem at least half the voters in American society were not that upset by it.

          If we assume that everyone who voted Trump in the 2016 elections were either okay with this or not offended enough not to vote for him, that percentage is actually more like 25-26% (He got about 63m votes in 2016 out of a voting eligible population of 243m). Still way too high if you ask me, but at least it’s not that bleak.

      Even in the western society,

      That article is sus.

      women generally have to live multiple lives. In public they are supposed to be beautiful and smiling all the time. In the bedroom they are supposed to be slutty (but only for their man). With children they are supposed to be saintly. In the home they are supposed to have the managment skills few CEOs possess.

      Absolutely false in my country. Absolutely no one forces anyone to be different than they are, unless their normal state is impolite. No one says you must be a slut or a chauvinist or any of that, and I refuse to accept peer pressure as an external force guiding anyone’s behaviour past adulthood. I am sorry you live like you do, where you do, and I hope you know a better world one day.
