Unchecked Violence Against Women

Gender abuse and violence in Malawi are rampant.

From NationMalawi.com:
If the girl-child manages to make it to school, she is likely to face the advances of the male teachers. High marks at the exams for girls are dangled as carrots to a horse in exchange for sex. If they say no, the girls face the teacher's barbaric wrath, which may take many forms -- physical, psychological and even mental.
Where are the reporters? Where is the outrage from women's rights groups?
