Enslaving women may come in different forms. I was a naive 24 year old when I married a professional engineer in Canada. Within a year of our marriage he figure he could substantially increase our income of I became a call girl. Women had low status in the industry, female oil company employees were expected to sleep with at least with the boss, but most of the other professionals wanted to be part of the deal also. If you did not like it, you could quit and because prospective employers usually contacted the previous employer for reference, your chances of finding work were slim.
I finally managed to get out of that marriage, him being a professional engineer became honorary consul of our old country, and I have no doubt his work in that area has nothing to do with honor.
