In an ideal world it wld be great to have a husband that loved you, didn't dominate or control u where you could submit & be blissfully happy & fulfilled as a #tradwife but the reality is that 1 in 4 women are victims of domestic violence & abuse. We need to remember that. #vawg

60% of women in prison have experienced domestic abuse.
Is prison the right place for women who’ve suffered abuse?
