Honor
killing is the killing of a member of a family who is perceived to have brought
dishonor upon relatives. But killings can be carried out for more
trivial reasons, like dressing in a way deemed inappropriate or displaying
behaviour seen as disobedient. Men may also be targeted, by members of the
family of a woman with whom they are perceived to have had an inappropriate
relationship. The killings are also more prevalent in disenfranchised or remote
communities.
Opinion:
In my
opinion, I feel that such a practice is sick. Despite it is taken as honorable,
such a practice is stupid. Everyone have a choice to choose their future
partners for it concerns their lifetime happiness. If they marry people they do
not like, it is considered a ‘shotgun marriage’ and such a marriage would not
last. Families kill their family member for disgracing their family reputation
and it is a disgrace to see that they care the name than their child.
