I'm listening to a radio programme about women in Uzbekistan who are
sterilised against their will & often without knowing, or lied to
about why they should be sterilised.
All because the government decide so, as a 'solution' to control the growing population.
They are often made to have c-sections in order that they are limited to the number of children they can have in future, in order that the doctors, who are given a weekly quota of women they must sterilise, can remove a woman's uterus or tie her tubes. Women & families live in fear & often in pain.
It makes me realise just how good we have it, despite whatever we go through, it puts a lot in perspective.
Just imagine what these women go through, & then look at what we have.
