In Bangladesh, Pakistan and India, the number of acid attacks have been rising - and there are some facts now beyond dispute.
The largest numbers of victims come from the poorest backgrounds and are women who have rejected their husbands, employers or would-be boyfriends.
The attack is not committed in a fit of anger or "passion" as is popularly believed but is premeditated and intended to kill or maim.
The attacker's message in no uncertain terms is that if you can't be mine, you won't be any one else's either.
Pray for those women in South Asia, no, actually, pray all the more for men in South Asia and all around the world, that many godly and masculine men will rise up to protect and cherish women all over the world.

I agree!! Men aren't women. They don't need the prefix in front of their sex to make them shy away from their responsibilities.
But I am also biased. It's something I want to see. Why don't a lot of men feel the same way? Is it because it's their responsibility and not ours (women's)?
Since the Fall, all people have become irresponsible, have tendency to twist and hide the truth. People, both men and women, have perverted views of manhood and womanhood, and I am not an exception. We can only pray to God that we as Christians will grow in the knowledge of God that what God has revealed in the Bible will make impact on our worldviews so that we will grow to be man and woman of God more and more as the Day approaches.
