This is why we need to stand strong and continue to fight for the rights of women all around the world. Women in America may think that women have all of the rights as the patriarchy, but this isn't the truth. Women in many other countries usually have no rights. This is cause for change, for protest, for women to stand together and protect one another.

This must stop.
