Daughter, you want to marry this man. Do you love
him? Is he kind to you? Does he share faith with you?
Are you happy with him? Do you laugh with him?
Does he want to help you to grow? Are you afraid of
him? What do other girls say about him? Has he been
violent to you? Does he control you? Will he give you
his fortnight pay? Does he drink alcohol? Will he be
unfaithful to you? Is he kind to children?

How do men abuse women in this
country?
Women are abused in the world. It comes
from the fact that men see themselves as
superior gender and physically stronger
than women. Women have the task of
looking after the house and family. They
need money for food, clothes, soap,
school fees and medicine.
Many men will be angry at sharing money.
Many will be angry if they come home at
any time and food is not ready. Many will
be angry if their wife refuses sex. So they
bash their wife often in drunken anger.
Planti meri i kisim taim nogut stret long
olgeta hap bilong graun. Long India

What are the traps for young women?
Many young women are trapped into a relationship with a
man by false promises. They let a man bash them and do
not see this as a danger sign. He will bash them again and
again. The man does not help in the home.
He comes home drunk. If the woman runs away, He will
find her and take her back. Family may be afraid to stop
him. They will blame the woman.
The biggest trap is to become pregnant and be forced to
seek money from the man who may be a stranger to the
woman. The man may trap a woman into early death with
HIV infection.
Planti yangpela meri i amamas moa yet sapos
wanpela man i laikim em. Ol i no sindaun na

How can a woman make sure she is not
trapped?
A woman can ensure safety by seeking the protection of
family. She marries a man known to the family. She is very
careful about marrying a man whose clan lives hundreds of
kilometers away and goes and lives in the village.
The clan may support the man against his wife, especially in
giving blame for the man being HIV infected. A woman can
make sure that she does not have sex with any man and run
the risk of HIV infection, pregnancy & Sexually Transmitted
Infections (STIs). She is safest to wait until she is married to
a man she can trust.
Famili i nambawan samting bilong sapotim na
lukautim ol yangpela man na meri. Plant i laik
lusim famili bikos ol i ting olsem famili bilong
em i no smat tumas.
Ol i laik long raun wantaim ol stail pren.Tasol
