8-Year-Old Child Bride Dies From Internal Bleeding After Her Wedding Night

 An eight-year-old Yemeni girl died of internal bleeding on her wedding night after marrying a man five times her age, a social activist and two local residents said, in a case that has caused an outcry in the media and revived debate about child brides.



Arwa Othman, head of Yemen House of Folklore and a leading rights campaigner, said the girl, identified only as Rawan, was married to a 40-year-old man late last week in the town of Meedi in Hajjah province in northwestern Yemen.


“On the wedding night and after intercourse, she suffered from bleeding and uterine rupture which caused her death,” Othman told Reuters. “They took her to a clinic but the medics couldn’t save her life.”

5 Things You Need To Know About The First World War red war between 1914 and 1918. The majority joined on the side of the Allies, including Serbia, Russia, France, Britain, Italy and the United States. They were opposed by Germany, Austria-Hungary, Bulgaria and the Ottoman Empire, who together formed the Central Powers. What began as a relatively small conflict in southeast Europe became a war between European empires. Britain and its Empire’s entry into the war made this a truly global conflict fought on a geographical scale never seen before. Fighting occurred not only on the Western Front, but in eastern and southeast Europe, Africa and the Middle East.... The First World War was not inevitable or accidental, but began as a result of human actions and decisions. Over 65 million men volunteered or were conscripted to fight in mass citizen armies. Millions of civilians also contributed to the war effort by working in industry, agriculture or jobs left open when men enlisted. Victory d...

What Life in Ancient Rome Was Really Like

What Life in Ancient Rome Was Really Like No other civilization in human history has fascinated the world quite like the Roman Empire. On the battlefield, the Romans were a force the world had never seen before, an unparalleled war machine that could sweep through cities and absorb entire countries into its borders.  At the heart of it all was Rome, the epicenter of the world. But what was it really like to live there? Where did the common Roman person live? What were the Roman games really like? And just how bad were some of those Roman emperors?  From the streets to the senate to the games, this is what life was like in ancient Rome. Most Romans lived in tall (up to 100 feet), rectangular apartment buildings called insula, meaning "island." Rome was crammed with these buildings, which were spaced very closely together, creating a labyrinth-esque network of narrow alleys. These buildings were built so close together that one man wrote that he and the man in the apartment acr...

Singer who had oral sex on stage gets men on lead slamming manhood into audience faces Doroth Helena de Sousa Alves, better known as MC Pipokinha, has caused more controversy by forcing two blokes to wear a double-leash and slam their manhood in the faces of audience members In her latest stunt, MC Pipokinha is filmed getting male fans on stage, strapping them into leashes and slamming their manhood into audience members' faces. The Brazilian pop star whose real name is Doroth Helena de Sousa Alves, has become synonymous for weird on—stage antics in recent months. The 24-year-old was recently seen smashing the head of the dad of an influencer into her a**e using her feet during a show, and being dry-humped by two men on stage. And she has now been filmed performing the bizarre act of strapping two very confused-looking blokes to a lead and making them slam their manhood into the faces of the audience. Thankfully, the two blokes were fully clothed, although a later video shows them ...

Women’s work in the home – then and now

Women’s work in the home – then and now In many ways, Swedish industrialisation began in the home. Women spun, wove and sewed clothes for payment in between their daily agricultural tasks, food  preparation and childcare. But didn’t all industrial production gradually move into the factories? ‟No, it didn’t. That is a  common misconception,” says economic historian Malin Nilsson, who is researching paid home industry work. ‟That is an oversimplified description of history, as there were many parallel processes going on at once, and in fact home industry work still exists today”, says Malin Nilsson, researcher in economic history at the Lund University School of Economics and Management. Nowadays, we may not find quite so much home industry work specifically in Sweden but, altogether, there are at least 60 million home industry workers globally (and just over 200 million more home workers who do not have industrial occupations). ‟This is a cheap and flexible workforce and for m...
