I was reading in a Trinidad newspaper that violence against pregnant women went up. I have seen statistics for many other countries, and it is not surprising. The modern concept of Male superiority engendered in the entire patriarchal system is the main culprit. But in saying this I have to also question the sanity of females who get involved with these uncultured males. So all sides do have to take blame here, although the largest portion has to go to males who have casually accepted the poor socio-religious concepts of male dominance and arrogance.
It is not to surprising that Women today are far more likely to understand the issues of racism and male dominance, because they have been on the receiving end of both at once.
