Kvinnokampen is not just a women's fight

Now the face of Ireland free of abortion, up to and including the twelfth week of pregnancy. It was one of the first news that were reported in the year 2019. The previous ban was instituted in a time when not even the light bulb was invented, and has thrown shadows over generation after generation, with infinite cruelty and suffering.

in 2012 took the life of the indian migrant workers, Savita Halappanavar, who was refused help at the hospital during a very difficult miscarriage. It helps, of course, not her self, for she is no more, but perhaps it can at least give some little comfort to her husband, to her relatives: her death was the catalyst for the change.

”well, You have to get used to determine your wife's hijab”, mill she. ”Your sweep!”

India, women have taken each other's hands and formed a 620-kilometer-long wall through almost the entire state of Kerala, in protest against those who are ”in the menstruating age are not allowed to visit the holy hindu Sabarimalatemplet.

even after India's highest court ordered the temples to lift the ban because it violates the freedom of religion, women have been given the access. But on the new year's first Friday came the task they penetrated the opponents cry, and the violence and stone throwing. They were in the temple.

”this is a great way to show how powerful women are, and how we can empower ourselves and help each other. Of course I support women of all ages to be able to visit the temple,” said protestor Kavita Das to the BBC.

the spread of the film after the film on women in Iran are rebelling against slöjtvånget.

In one of the video clips are a mullah in an escalator and yells to a woman that she should take the veil.
”Leave me in peace, stupid man!”, she shouts back. the
Other men intervene. Says to mullan that he did not have to do with whether she wears the headscarf or not, that he should leave her in peace.

In another video follows a mullah after a woman on the street and says she has right to the veil, otherwise he's going to see to get her arrested. Finally she's had enough.
”well, You have to get used to determine your wife's hijab”, mill she. ”Your sweep!”
She tears off the veil completely and goes his way, disappearing into the crowd while mullan is speechless left in the cold draught from the winds of change.

more and more refuse the veil now. On the internet organising themselves, through appeals, such as #mystealthyfreedom, my whispers of freedom. And when a new fatwa forbade women to ride a bike they said to him, by arranging public cykelrallyn.

the story is a success story. It is so tempting to tell you about it so: as a series of achievements, the one better than the other. One must beware of the trap.

In fact, the story goes a little here and there, in large and in small. In Sweden, which is considered to be one of the world's most gender-equal countries, and who are called ”feminist saudi Arabia”, fell in Friday the sentencing of the husband – blonde and blue-eyed, and Swedish – who brutally raped and knivmördat a for him foreign mother of a young child in an underpass in the summer, he ”wanted to feel what it felt like” to kill a woman.

And in the real saudi Arabia allows statsfeminismen now while women to drive a car, but when they are placed on the football game for the first time, in conjunction with the Italian supercupfinalen between their first of the season Juventus and Milan, so are they consigned to familjeläktaren. It was also announced this year's first week.

Our world is also in 2019 a man's world, a patriarchy: Still mutilated little girls in all corners of the world. Still tvångsgifts the away. They still lack basic human rights, to education, to their bodies, to their own will.

Not in our country goes to the safe; a life free from hedersförtryck is no matter of course here, and it depends on ignorance of course, and the indulgence, on the idea that certain cultures are in a certain way and it can't require them to treat all people decently, even women?

see the right light, for many of the world's women. Not necessarily because they have it good, but for that all the more able to consider them as people. It may be worth recalling: the importance of men closes up. Kvinnokampen is not just women's fight, but everyone's. But in the forefront is, of course, the women themselves, hand in hand. Their work is difficult and dangerous.

Hear their cry.
