This episode of Woman first aired on VICE TV in 2016.

Hiding her face but showing the baby was pointless. Praying for her safety.

I really can't stress this enough. Yall really gotta do a better job hiding these wemen identities. It's crazy to hear what people will do to these wemen and yall put basic filters on them that literally anybody who knows them irl can tell in .2 seconds. Bro yall put that woman's whole ahs child's FACE in this video

[FightsRightsAlways]

Her face when that man was describing how he would beat his 15 year old girlfriend.

[Apryltaurus]

I will never understand femicide or infanticide, pedophilia

[yoink]

One of the most dangerous places for women? Yet you show the lady’s baby, her neck, her arms, and you use the worst blur I’ve ever seen..

[Mahkhumalo]

That man said it’s fun to harm women?!? “It’s like creativity”?!? Excuse?!?😳

[t_swayyv]

omg that lady identifying her loved one tore my heart

[jaymele]

my grandmother sent my mother off to the states in the 70s due to the extreme violence in El Salvador. And I'm so incredibly grateful she did. My mother received citizenship, graduated from Hs and college. her life would have been so much different had she stayed.

[PatriceDMV]

It's irresponsible to put the baby in this video and you barely blurred his mother. WTF?

[cici]

The pain in her voice when she said “ay si” broke my heart

[Islandspice]

It's like some men really hate women. Despicable really. Unacceptable in every way. Damn shame. RIP to all the innocent that have passed. Peace be with you.

I'm suddenly remembering my mom's friend, an El Salvadorean woman who had American kids but she herself was waiting for citizenship. It looked like she might get rejected so she told my mom in confidence that she'd kill herself if she gets denied, so she won't be forced to go back and so her sons wouldn't have to worry about her. Thank god she was granted citizenship

[hieithefox]

The woman wants to be anonymous but you showed off a lot a blurred effect and not showing the face doesn’t do much also you showed her kid? Why show their face? I know this is a re upload but I haven’t seen it before and this just struck me as weird.

[candycane]

I hate it when guys are like "she didn't leave so she must like it" No... That's not It's scary

[angiemachado]

the way these men speak so highly about their horrendous actions is mind boggling. are they not processing THE WORDS coming out of their mouths? so despicable and disgusting. more justice and protection for these women!!!

[ChardeeMacdennis]

Listening to that man talk about beating and almost killing the mother of his child was absolutely horrifying and heartbreaking. I’m shocked at how easily he talked about it. How little he seemed to care. I can’t wrap my head around it 😞💔

[shennaas]

Coming from a fairly male dominated country, I always get shocked by how men would behave when no one is watching...

[lipglosslover]

This is disgusting 🤮… prayers for the women who have to endure this horrific abuse.

[Vmastered]

Shoutout to the men that actually care and protect woman and childrens

[serta]

Maybe try hiding this woman's identity better. More blurring
