Every other women (54.2%) during her life sufferes some form of violence physical, psychological, economic or sexual.

Data of agancys for sexyal equality shows that even every third female survived a severe form of physical violence, such as choking, burning or assault weapon. The most widespread is the psychological violence (46.1% of women), followed by a combination of psychological and physical (17.3%), followed by physical, economic and psychological (12%), as well as psychological and economic (8%). Violence between spouses represents a set of behaviors in order to establish control over another person (usually concerning a women) through the use of violence, intimidation and manipulation. Violence in merrige or in any relationship always means abuse of power that is based on gender inequality. In 95% of cases they are women, young or old, married or single, employed or unemployed, education or no education, rich or poor, black or white. All women and girls can be potential victims of violence. Characteristics of female victims is low self-confidence and self-esteem (those which often have a history of domestic violence), and the characteristics of abusers: low self-esteem, insecurity, aggression, and often the addiction to alcohol or drugs. It is whidly believed that the relationship is a private matter and that the society should not be able to interfere, these are just some of the reasons why we chose this as a theme for our art and public activity to show that when a woman is exposed to violence, it is no longer her personal problem, but it reflects on society. Patriarchal division in marriage gives men more power and rights, and thus some men believe they have the right to beat their wives. Environment often puts pressure on women that suffer a severe form of violence to remain in such a marriage. Suffering violence is defined as social constructs and has various psychological reasons. The explanation, in part, can be found in the most common dynamics of violent relationships in which alternating phases of violence, when the entire power belongs to the bully, and the stage or remorse where the woman has the illusion of their power and control of the situation. The woman is a free individual and is not obliged to remain silent, suffering, and has the right of choice. More than 70% of cases are made up of men who are not under the influence of alcohol. Alcohol is not the reason for the violence, but it can intensify it. It is also one of the themes that runs trough the play in the moments when young Mark encourages possessive jealousy to commit violence. (socially acceptable to blame alcohol for violent behavior as the bully he could not control it.)
