    "content": "important because it protects men, women and children. We know for a fact that the nature of families right now is that not any particular cadre is subject to violence. Children in relationships; men in relationships and women in relationships suffer violence. Therefore, there is need to have a regime that protects all and sundry. In fact, that is why the preamble of this Bill becomes very useful; that it is one that is to provide protection of a spouse and any children or other dependent persons and to provide for matters connected therewith. You will appreciate that in the traditional African society, sometimes men live with their sisters-in-laws or sisters-in-law live with men but, sometimes, girls gang up with their sisters and beat up the men thoroughly. So, it is important to have a regime where men who are subjected to this sort of thing also find protection. I really think that living with relatives is something that is interesting for us men from western Kenya and coast. These men ought to take this particular Bill seriously. This is for their protection."
