Secretary-General António Guterres warned Monday that women are suffering new assaults on their safety and dignity around the world, pointing to extremists subjugating women and governments curtailing womens freedoms and rolling back laws against domestic violence.
He told the opening session of the Commission on the Status of Women that educating and empowering women will unleash their potential and prevent challenges that arise from violent extremism, human rights violations, xenophobia and other threats.
While Guterres didnt name any countries or groups, his message was clearly aimed at the Islamic State extremist group which sells women and girls as sex slaves. It also appeared directed at U.S. President Donald Trumps expansion of a ban on federal aid to international organizations that provide abortions or abortion information and to Russia for new legislation decriminalizing some forms of domestic violence.
The U.N. chief said men still dominate in every country of the world and male chauvinism blocks women from getting ahead. Our world needs more women leaders, Guterres said. And our world needs more men standing up for gender equality.

So sad that only white heterosexual males are the only group that can succeed without the help of white heterosexual males
“women are suffering new assaults on their safety and dignity
Maybe in your favorite 3rd world countries.
Not in my neighborhood. Not where I work. Not in my church.
Meanwhile, in Sweden and Germany...
I noticed that the Clinton Foundation and Chelsea Clinton have gone to yammering in full time about women and girls lately, so this is just the latest push from the powers that be to change a narrative to whatever they want it to be.
Yes, and you can thank islam for it. Watching the left embrace islam is painless.
So how are they going to punish America?
Pray America woke
Our world need more liberal women to publicly name the prime culprits in the world-wide assaults on women -- Moslems. The reason they don't do this is two-fold:
1) They have a paralyzing fear of being considered "racists" (even thought Islam isn't a race).
2) They have "enemy of my enemy is my friend" mentality about Moslems. Leftists/feminists and Moslems have many of the same enemies -- Christians and our Judeo-Christian tradition, Israel, white men, personal responsibility, and sanity. Hence, the bedfellow status of fembots and Muzzies.
Yeah, thank goodness he didn't name any countries or groups (without which it is impossible to solve the problem) - that might have been controversial; that might have offended someone.

Take it to the Imams.
