Cage of Violation

1 in every 4 girls will be raped before they reach age 18. When a woman is raped, she not only has to suffer and recover from physical damages, but also her mental oppression. Rape victims are likely to smoke, drink, overeat, and let themselves get into life endangering situations. Out of all the women who have been raped, not even half report it due to fear, but what if one woman can make a difference by fighting for herself and others by standing up from her fears?

I am a daughter of a feminist and a fighter myself as I march and write and call my senators. The voice is very important and The Handmaid's Tale was pushed onto me by my mother as it has been her favorite book. I want to take this opportunity to share my own short story on fighting for better chances for women.
