    I think it was a great idea to ask both direct and personal questions, especially about physical violence. Your questions help people think seriously about their own experiences or things they have seen around them. I also liked how you asked not only about being a victim, but also about witnessing violence ,this shows how wide the impact can be. Focusing on physical violence is important because it’s often easier to recognize than psychological or economic violence, but it can also be the most damaging. One suggestion for future research is to look more into how physical violence begins and what early warning signs people should look out for. This could help prevent violence before it becomes more serious. Overall, your work is very meaningful and can help spread awareness in a powerful way.

Woman rights and Domestic violence (Perspective①)

  【perspective①】Introduction to the Position of Victims in Domestic Violence BBC News. (2025, June 24). ''I thought my abusive relationship were normal https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c86jy6q1126o This is written from the perspective of a victim of violence. It details the psychological state of a woman who has been victimized. I have been a victim of domestic violence since I was a child and throughout my life. Because of this, I had low self-esteem. I felt worthless and even had suicidal thoughts. I never noticed any signs that I was having a mental break until I had suicidal thoughts. The signs are very subtle. It may seem romantic, but if we don't learn about abuse it is really hard to understand. In fact, I was a victim of not only physical violence but also economic abuse because I worked for my partner. I would lose my job, money, and we have two children, so it was very difficult for me to leave here. But in reality I was always looked down upon by my husband. I c...

woman rights and domestic violence

  Hello. My name is Sena and my name is Chiharu. I am a university student in Japan, and I am currently studying mainly English language and English literature in detail. We are deepening our discussion on women's rights and domestic violence. The reason why we decided to research this topic is because we believe that in our country, problems related to women's rights and incidents of domestic violence by men against women have been increasing in recent years. We would like to study in detail the current situation in Japan where women are still looked down upon and the psychology of those who commit violence against their loved ones. I would like to update my blog once a week. Please read it. How does domestic violence impact women’s efforts to achieve equal rights? Women who are victims of domestic violence live in constant fear, making it difficult for them to make positive choices about their own lives. This limits their opportunities for work, education, and political parti...
