Yet, a considerable lot of the ladies survivors themselves point to an alternate reason: sheer diligence and the capacity to support one another even with dampening mortification. Despite the fact that researchers and women's activists banter about whether this was really genuine, it is pass that ladies shaped bonds inside the inhumane imprisonments that they accepted helped them to manage the passionate and physical torment they endured.
