All right, let’s get a little controversial here today.
I just saw on the news that a 17-year-old girl had been beaten up by her 21-year-old husband and was in a coma.
My question is, why does this still happen and what could be a feasible solution to this problem? Are women to blame? Are men to blame? Should there be stricter laws against it?
We want to hear your position on the violence against women topic.
Aguardo as respostas em inglês nos comentários. Good Luck!

I think that we should have more strict laws and educate the people, because this problem is very serious. Women suffer with this there are many years and the government doesn’t make new laws or campaign to educate the people.
The politicians must have more attention to this problem.
Hellow, good morning people!
Violence against women, this is horrible. Is difficult to accept that this still exists.
In my opinion, she will accept the guilty be married to a person. I know that fight between couples happens more with violence?
I’m married too, but I hope that never happen with me.
Sorry, this is my opinion.

If you buy a household appliance, probably you will read its manual to know how to use it well. If you go to a unknown place, to consult a map it’s the righteous to do.
So, why don’t people prepare to get married? The marriage’s manual is the bible. The Bible advice us: “The married… will have tribulation on their flesh.” (1 Corinthians 7:28) It’s not easy to live with other person. Even so when we are not prepared to do it. When you are young, at most of cases, you aren’t ready to establish a new family!
Human laws should to punish violent people. However, God’s laws avoid problems like all kind of violence. “If only you would actually pay attention to my commandments! Then your peace would become just like a river, and your righteousness like the waves of the sea.” (Isaiah 48:18)
This is not a women problem only. We stumble on these cases every single day and we can see families ruined. Under my point of view the home violence is a serious problem that must be banished of our lives. Of course there’s a cultural meaning behind all those scenes of violence that must be reviwed. It’s not just a governamental problem to solve, but a social behavior that shoud be faced courageously, each one doing what must be done with responsability.
If women are mercilessly exploited year after year, they have only themselves to blame.
Ok. This is very important topic, but I think I have no opinion about this. Why do I have no opinion about it ? Because I can`t believe there is still such thing that a man can do to a woman as many other things that I can`t believe such as, Sexual violence, Muders….Why do we do this to ourselves ? Wouldn`t be better if we could live in peace without all these terrible things ?
Hello guys!
I think there is a solution to this problem is Education. A good education on school would avoid lots of problems like violence, unemployment, prostitution and more.
Its up to us to change it
Hi
It´s horrible… It´s difficult to accept that and I think the blame is of the education gaves by parents, sometimes, the women are to educate to do all for her husband, without answers and she accepts the phisical violence as part of the your life “He is mad but He loves me”, complain the women.. The woman feels shy about this and many times She doesn´t search help and lives this way until bigger tragedy to happen…
The parents need to learn boys and girls since little one to respect each other, I think this is the way…

I Think if man, whant call his a man, he don’t never beat in a woman.
Man in most part of time has more strong than a woman.
Sorry my horrible english, cause I am improve now it, with a private teacher.
Hi fellows!
Yeah! To hurt a woman (both phisically and emotionally) is something repugnat! It’s incredible that in 2010 still exists cowards who beat women! Like some people say: “You don’t hit a woman even with a petal of rose” (I think I can say like that…)
See you!
