Unfortunately, it has always been a man's world. This distinction has always been reserved for men as part of the power structure. Women were placed in a position inferior to men. “One man is worth two women.” “Men are the stewards of women.” “A man is not like a woman.” “Blessed be the Lord for not creating me a woman.” |

She was trying to send a message to society that these crimes are a disgrace and a black stain added to our shameful record of marginalizing the role of women in society, especially murders for the sake of honor which have increased in Syria in recent years, victimizing dozens of Syrian women. |
