Stroke II Stroke

Much of this book is dedicated to exploring female rights in Canada, India, the developing world, and other countries, making comparisons and contrasting the experience of these women. For example, the ways that sexuality is handled in many third world countries and the cultures there are to approach female sexuality as a sense of duty to the man or as a feeling of shame if a women should want it for herself. Compare this to Canada where many women are not ashamed of their sexuality, embracing their sexuality and exploring it as free women. Much in the same way that there are differences in sexuality, differences in marriage also persist with some men in the third world choosing to turn their wives into slaves, trapping them in the home, and trapping them in a loveless marriage. There have been failures in the media, by law enforcement and government, and by non-profits in supporting women around the world and in cultivating a positive culture of empowerment, equal rights, and freedom.
