[My Everything]

trash

 

apparently its real http://www.cnn.com/2017/01/13/europe/russia-domestic-violence/

[chiirbii]

Looks real, other news sites are reporting on it... 

 

Like, this is a prime example that 'tradition' should not be an excuse to push against change, or in this case, revert back to outdated ideas.

[Kashi]

Apparently it's real and it's Yelena Mizulina, a woman, who proposed the bill wtf

[demasta]

wtf

[FAEV]

omg wtf

[Jiraishin]

Yelena Mizulina is a masochist considering the bills she's been sponsoring regarding abortions, family issues and women rights. This woman needs to be hospitalized, she's sick in the head. For real.

[Gilean]

OMG, I don't even know what's worse, the fact that a woman proposed a law that allows the beating of women or the fact that 368 out of 370 people voted for it.

It's just so sad

Yet another reason to never, ever, ever go to Russia.

[Nestea Iced Tea]

Moscow (CNN)There's an old Russian expression: "If he beats you it means he loves you."

What kind of horrific brainwashing is this?

 

36,000 women are beaten by their husbands daily, and 12,000 women die yearly as a result of domestic violence -- one woman every 44 minutes.
