Wash Post: ‘Climate change puts more women at risk for domestic violence’


WaPo: "From Kenya to India and the Philippines, more frequent and intense extreme weather events have led to escalating threats against women and girls" - For these and many other women around the world, the threat of violence could become more common as climate change makes extreme weather events more intense and frequent. ... A 2021 study of extreme weather events in Kenya by researchers at St. Catherine University in Minnesota found the economic stresses caused by flooding and drought or extreme heat exacerbated violence against women in their homes. The research, which used satellite and national health survey data, showed that domestic violence rose by 60 percent in areas that experienced extreme weather. That analysis, and 40 others published this year as part of a global review in the journal The Lancet, found a rise in gender-based violence during or after extreme weather events. ...

“Heat waves, floods, climate-induced disasters increase sexual harassment, mental and physical abuse, femicide, reduce economic and educational opportunity and increase the risk of trafficking due to forced migration,” said McGovern, who added that the data remains limited on some fronts, including on psychological and emotional violence and attacks against minority groups. ... ‘The violence peaks during the floods’ ... Scientists emphasize that extreme weather events do not cause domestic or gender-based violence, but instead exacerbate existing pressures or make it easier for perpetrators to carry out such violence.

The legitimate powers of government extend to such acts only as are injurious to others. But it does me no injury for my neighbor to say there are twenty gods, or no god. It neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg.

Are females who transition to being males still affected as if they are women or does it treat them like men?  Or do men who transition to being females feel the effects like women?  What if they aren't changed surgically but are sex change wannabes, are they affected as if they had the change?  And suppose they change their minds weekly, does it affect them by weekly gender choice? :whistle:

Granted women suffer greatly of domestic violence but stats about male victims of domestic violence are off because so many men are too embarrassed to admit that their wives abused them.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.
So shut down the AC (have rolling blackouts, even, to charge those EVs) to save the planet, and then get back to me on how that worked...

Blackouts in August are traditional free-for-alls in major cities, now with more drugs and violence!

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

 Progressivism makes people stupider by the day, narrowing their ability to comprehend the world around them, and reducing all understanding of events to identity politics.

It also makes people more susceptible to the lure of authoritarians who claim to be friends of "democracy".
"The most terrifying force of death, comes from the hands of Men who wanted to be left Alone. They try, so very hard, to mind their own business and provide for themselves and those they love. They resist every impulse to fight back, knowing the forced and permanent change of life that will come from it. They know, that the moment they fight back, their lives as they have lived them, are over. -Alexander Solzhenitsyn
