american women's oppression

Women's oppression in the United States is no less oppressive than other parts of the world. Dowry murder in India and female infanticide in China is no more or less oppressive than the epidemic rates of rape, abuse, forced prostitution, murder, and sexual objectification of women in America. When we see that women's oppression is linked to the oppression of all women of the world, we can see that we have far more in common with the rest of the world's women than we are led to believe.
