Violence against women article
Hi Geminiwalker, I read your new article on violence against women and reverted it to the original article. Then, I did my best to add some of your major points into the original article from a more neutral point of view. Some of the subjects I identified in your article were:


 * The existence of violence against women because of sexism (a social hierarchy that allows women to be treated as less than human).
 * The importance of understanding how the gender binary contributes to sexism.
 * How military and war allow for especially egregious forms of violence against women.
 * How domestic violence workers contribute to violence against women.
 * (briefly) the necessity of addressing race, class and drug addiction co-currently with eliminating violence against women.
 * Solutions to ending domestic violence:
 * Isolating domestic violence perpetrators.
 * Addressing sexism instead of only reacting to women that have been hurt.

I added some of these themes to the article. Please review my work and make sure that I didn't take any of your work out of context. Also, I would love to know of some more of the sources that you used in writing your article.

I believe that the original article was sorely lacking in the areas that you most strongly wrote about, but I felt that both the original article's format was more appropriate, and that the style you used reflected a point of view that would have been too easy to dismiss. Please write me to discuss my edit.
