Thembi Maphanga was doused 1 in petrol and set alight by her partner. I'm confused until he threw the petrol over me. And we fought for the match for a while. Thembi wears her scar as a blemish 2 on the conscience of a country struggling with gender 3 violence. Women themselves have taken to the streets to raise the problem. We normalize it. And I think we kept quiet so long that it got to a stage whereby it's uncontrollable. So staying in, if you're just going to die. You're not going to stay in there being abused every day and survive. It's either you physically 4 die, or you emotionally die.
坦比?玛旁被她的伴侣浇上汽油并把她的身体点燃了。我不知道他要做什么，直到他把汽油往我身上泼我才知道发生了什么事。我们为了拿到火柴打斗了一会儿。坦比身上的伤疤就像一个污点，提醒我们这个国家正在性别暴力的现象中挣扎。女性自己已经走上街头，呼吁人们意识到这个问题。我们正在把这种现象正常化。我觉得我们对这个问题已经沉默了太长时间，它已经达到了一个不可控的阶段。如果你已经快死了，那么就对这个问题置之不理吧。但是你不可能在每天被暴力虐待还能活下来的情况下继续保持沉默。那么说明你要么身体上已经死亡，要么精神上已经死亡。
At least three women are killed by their intimate partners every day in South Africa. And yet the conviction rate remains 5 extremely low. It is reaching a crisis situation. Some they call it crimes of passion, which is a really dangerous thing to happen but also difficult to police, because we have very few, if any witnesses. Usually the main witness is the same, is the perpetrator. But until a solution is found South Africa women have been urged to save themselves. There's a reason why I've survived, you know, to be the voice of all the women who died in the hands of their partners. I feel their reasons would be the same. You know, he is jealous, he was stalking, he was controlling and everything. I feel all the women who've died, their reasons are the same. So I am a survivor 6.
在南非，每天至少有三名女性被她们的亲密伴侣杀害。但是对此的判罪率却维持极低的状况。这种情况已经达到了危机的程度。有些人管它叫激情犯罪，这个问题非常危险，但是警察判案也很难，因为即使有目击证人，我们也是极少的。通常情况是，主要目击证人和犯罪人是同一个人。除非找到解决这个问题的办法，人们呼吁南非女性首先进行自救。我能活下来有一个原因，那就是为所有死在伴侣手中的女性发声。我相信她们如果活下来，原因也是这个。你知道的，伴侣因为嫉妒，他会跟踪，他想控制，还有其他所有事情。我感觉所有被杀害的女性，她们如果能活下来，原因也会是一样的。我是一个幸存者。
