The lack of legislation granting women and men equal rights to administer property during marriage deprives women of their own means and livelihood and makes them economically dependent on their husbands, hence increasing their vulnerability to sustained violence.
缺少关于赋予男女有平等权利处理婚姻财产的立法，剥夺了妇女的生活手段，使她们在经济上依赖于丈夫，从而在持续的暴力行为面前更加无助。
