that allows this treatment of women ENDS!

We live in a world where there is no shame for men who treat women as if they are the blame for everything.

We must all live together here and I blame religion for all the hate.

Can you imagine being in her situation?

First of all, you wake up to realize you have been drugged and raped in a foreign country that you already know is hostile to women.

Then you have the courage, even in your traumatized state, to make the journey to a police station to report the crime only to be JAILED.

So now you're in a jail cell, dealing with not only the trauma of the violation but the trauma of imprisonment. Oh and the bonus? The guy who did it wakes up the next morning happy as a clam and goes about his normal life.

I would go insane.
