Today (Friday) the world celebrates the day of the fight against violence against women.

It seems that with each passing year, the statistics become much bleaker, and although awareness of the issue has increased in recent years, women are still ashamed to reveal the fact that they have fallen victim to a vile act by those closest to them.



Many women think that this cannot happen to them, but the bitter truth is that any woman can fall victim to violence regardless of family, social or economic status.

As evidence, some of the most powerful and well-known women in the world have personally experienced violence from the men in their lives.



Fortunately, they managed to survive the ordeal to tell what happened to them, and to call on others to break the cruel cycle of violence and set things straight: we have nothing to be ashamed of, the attacker is the one who should bear the shame.

The case of

Rihanna

and

Chris Brown

is one of the most famous in the world.

The couple, who had one of the most scrutinized relationships in the music industry, were unusually absent from the 2009 Grammy Awards. It was later revealed that following an argument in the car, Brown punched Rihanna, leaving her bruised.



The photos of the singer, who suffered many bruises on her face, were leaked to the media "by a woman who values ​​a check more than values", as Rihanna herself described it.



Years after the incident, Brown himself told what happened in the car.

According to him, Rihanna found out that he cheated on her and started going crazy.

"She tried to take my phone and really fought with me. I punched her and opened her mouth. As soon as I saw it, I was shocked. I didn't understand why I hit her so hard. She spat blood in my face. It only upset me more."



The star went on with her life, and in 2020 donated more than a million and a half dollars to treat victims of domestic violence during the Corona period.

Shira Iskov

shook the entire country, not because of the horrific event that almost ended her life, but because of the actions she took afterwards.

On the eve of Rosh Hashanah 2020, Iskov's ex-husband tried to murder her in their home in Mitzpe Ramon.

He attacked her with a rolling pin and stabbed her with a knife when their baby son was at home.



Iskov, who survived the human injuries, asked to publish her name and photos.

In an interview with the "Ovda" program, she clarified that she is not the one who needs to hide, and her attacker is the one who should be ashamed of his actions.

Since then, she had time to speak in the Knesset, and referred to plea agreements that are signed with violent men: "We must make a change. When negotiations for a plea agreement begin, the victim has no ability to express an opinion.

If the prosecutor's office and defense attorneys agree on a punishment, it is enough and we will have to accept it, which is unacceptable.

The fear that the victim should fear for her life when he is released does not interest them."



Following Iskov's case, an amendment was made to the guardianship law in the country, and the denial of guardianship to a parent due to murder, attempted murder or domestic rape was approved.

Charlize Theron

's childhood was light years away from the glamor of the film industry.

One night her father came home after an evening full of alcohol and started shooting everywhere.

Theron's mother,

Gerda

, shot and killed him.

She was arrested, but was released after her shooting was found to be justified and defined as self-defense.



In addition to making large donations to centers that treat those who have experienced domestic violence and sexual assault, Theron referred to the METOO movement in an interview with Forbes magazine: "Gender-based violence is a global problem. I think we realized that sometimes, we are the only ones who can support each other. If we fight for the rights of other women, All of our lives will be better."

Christina Aguilera

grew up with an abusive father and in a documentary, she talked about the atmosphere of fear in which she grew up.

"I witnessed many unpleasant incidents. I remember beatings, pressure and a feeling of insecurity. This feeling, of terrible weakness, is the worst in the world. I found refuge in singing and fell in love with music out of the pain I experienced at home."



Aguilera managed to get out of the cycle of violence with the help of her ex-husband, whom she divorced in 2011 after the two had a child together. That I have. I know that my goal is to strengthen, empower and help women make their voices heard."

Last December, the model gave a revealing interview to Channel 12, and said that her marriage to

Yaniv Ben Moshe

was full of violence that he allegedly directed towards her.

Rubel described several cases, and said that the relationship was jealous and obsessive, something that flattered her at the beginning of the relationship but became suffocating later and slipped into violent streaks.

According to her, as soon as she stepped onto the roof she knew she was making a mistake.



Along with the warm reactions that Rubel received, her ex-husband declared a war on Kurma and directed his violence to social networks.

Later, Dolev Salem, who was also Ben Moshe's partner, claimed that she suffered violence from him and apologized to Tahunia, for not believing her.
