a woman could live in. Not enough is being done to protect the women of the land. The enforcement of laws protecting women is often weak.The practice of laws is not always translated into implementation. Victims of Gender Based Violence often face many obstacles within society-

and in the criminal justice system that make it difficult for them to benefit from the laws. 1 in 3 women has been beaten, coerced into sex or otherwise abused in her lifetime. 48% of women and girls aged between 10 to 24 report their first sexual encounter as coerced.

Reducing violence against women should be seen as a direct indicator for achieveing development in general. Policy attention needs to be focused on understanding women’s needs and experiences in addressing the scourge of Gender Based Violence in South Africa

but im just 17. so what do i know.😙

@jodakgosii @_Nadimadisha You are lying on your statistics. But we can all agree that there's a big problem.

@Noziliou @_Nadimadisha what i didn't do is make up statistics. i read a number of articles before o posted this and it was from reliable sources. but if you may please direct me to the correct ones❤️

@jodakgosii @Venom__Spitter_ What is the root cause?

@jodakgosii A cleanse is needed

@jodakgosii @Nellyilove_u What's your source?

@jodakgosii This is so true...

@jodakgosii 💯

@jodakgosii @Oi_Penelope Yet they blame foreigners for their problems. SA is no different from the USA. Criminals always blaming foreigners

@jodakgosii Problem here in SA is that people come from other countries to commit crimes here, yes we have local perpetrators but including that committed by foreigners the numbers are higher, thers no law here and it's not even treated as an emergency

@jodakgosii @NaledzaniH SIS WAM, THAT'S TOO MUCH NEGATIVE ENERGY YOU FOCUSING ON... AND I DON'T THINK THOSE ARE FACTUAL POINTS... SOUTH AFRICA IS JUST A LAST BORN, ALL THOSE THINGS YOU MENTIONED ARE WORSE IN OTHER COUNTRIES.. SOUTH AFRICA HAS ITS OWN HUMANITY AND UBUNTU TOO🌍❤

@jodakgosii The men who are suppose to be protecting us are brutalising us.

@jodakgosii @hatsi_malope South Africa is a violent country in many ways that’s no argument but I always find this “rape capital of world” claim problematic for many reasons, one being u can’t prove it as some countries don’t even recognize many types of rape cat cc @AfricaCheck

@jodakgosii It's a social problem caused by behavior at home...

@jodakgosii Go live in Cameroon or Ghana you'll feel safe🤷🏿‍♂️

@jodakgosii Because in this rotten country criminals live nice in jail. They have rights and get parole for good behavior. So rapist and murderer's r not scared to go to jail in the hell country
