7 years later and this video still only has 15,000 views. Just sad. This fact alone shows how much people don’t want to deal with this most basic of problems.

Women are often unsafe in the world. They have to take extra precautions when they go out. The best way for a woman to protect herself is by carrying her phone with her at all times. She can set up an emergency contact list so that if she ever needs help she can simply call or send a text message without even having to think about it. Zena is this type of perfect app.

This is a reply post regarding a article on Assault Against Woman: For what is statistically true, or accurate, and even what is not included statistically, and all other crime such as this is what is ( violence against women) Always unacceptable... Women have the Right to Feel and be Safe... No woman..., or person....child...should ever have to experience this kind heinous personal intrusion in their lifetime, this seems to be occurring at least according to news reports more, and all to often. Actually this activity should be in a stage, or state of Reversal, and NOT Increasing, I am continually upset as well as greatly disturbed in hearing such stories, as I have always have been... My Heart Always... goes out to any person which have experienced any such similar experience of intrusion, attacks, and, or invasion of their personal well-being... due violence, and or violent behavior, I will continue to pray for the Safety and Well-Being of Others...

Action Breaks Silence is a charity based in the UK and they work in South Africa and India where gender based violence is huge problem. In addition to empowering young girls and women through self defense training, they conduct workshops and training with boys - because for the most part it is the boys who are doing the harming and/or growing up into men who are harming. Support this charity if you are able.

There is no safety (more or less) and certainly not at home ..

What we can do?

All the feminists Ive met are too busy fighting against manspreading, mansplaining, cat callling and political correctness to care or even learn about this horrible suffering in other countries.
