I loved this article. I am so glad you wrote about her. It also reminded me all the real feminists are expired because none who claim to be all for women wrote about this tragedy.

Cause and affect in a society with much different cultural values steeped in tribal history being dragged into our modern times for better or worse. She exemplified the best of what could be, while he is the perfect example of what men should not be in this age.

I am also a runner and I try to change my routes from being too predictable. I also work at a gym so I can go there to run but it’s better to run in the open.

The issue of domestic violence and the belief that a woman is responsible for a man’s violence is ridiculous. The issue is a lack of virtue on the part of the man. Women are not responsible for being set on fire.

Absolutely, I 100% agree with you, Zina. Staying up to date with this story via social media has really been rather eye-opening for me. Archaic beliefs regarding women are so much more prevalent than I realized. That is smart about changing up your routes. I do the same. It's crazy we have to think that way.
