When it comes to marriage, women should expect better from their partner. Making marriage equal, fair, and safe for women is a priority. Their spouse should be an equal partner, equitably sharing in the household and child-rearing tasks. Also, there is never any excuse for emotional or physical abuse.
If you or someone you know is experiencing domestic abuse please refer to the list of resources below for help.
