Iyov has a post up about how women are being attacked with acid in Pakistan. I hate this sort of thing. I also hate how the piece Iyov quotes suggests the women 'need a voice'. Actually, it sounds like they need a gun. And a decent justice system.
I've never noticed violence against women decreasing just because a woman has a voice, whatever the hell that means. They already have voices and they are often quite a lot louder than mine, thank you very much. The reason bad men choose not to do violence to women is because they know there are good men out there who will take them down if they do.
