From the LA Times via feministing:
Nujood Ali was pulled out of school and forced to marry a man 3 times her age, even though she is well below the age of consent in Yemen. He beat and sexually abused her. She went to court and got a divorce! Now she’s back in school.
“When I left school, I learned how to count from one to 100,” she said. “Now, I am going to learn how to count until a million.”
Sometimes people say that feminism is bad because it made divorce rates go up. Looking at this story, I can just say, “Fuck yeah.”
Sorry I’m not as eloquent as Nujood (she’s just outperforming me all over the place).
