外媒选出对女性最危险的10个国家，第一竟是...

India is the most dangerous country in the world to be a woman because of the high risk of sexual violence and slave labor, a new survey of experts shows.

一项新的专家调查指出，对女性而言，印度是世界上最危险的国家，因为在该国遭受性暴力及奴役的风险很高。

Nine of the 10 countries on the list were from Asia, the Middle East or Africa. At number 10 was the United States, the only Western country to be included. The foundation that released the results said this was directly related to the #MeToo movement.

上榜的十个国家有九个来自亚洲、中东或非洲。排在第十位的是美国，唯一上榜的西方国家。公布该调查结果的基金会表示，这个结果与“我也是”运动直接相关。

India has long grappled with the issue of sexual violence. In 2017, the central government passed legislation increasing penalties for sexual assault, rape, and sexual abuse, including extending prison sentences and introducing the death penalty.

长期以来印度一直在努力解决性暴力的问题。2017年，印度中央政府通过立法加重了性侵、强奸及性虐待的惩罚，包括延长刑期及纳入死刑。

But despite the introduction of stricter laws, around 100 sexual assaults are reported to police in the country every day, according to the National Crime Records Bureau.
