  • he beat his wife because she "talked back"

    The year China's famous road-tripping 'auntie' found freedom

    Sixty-year-old Chinese grandmother Su Min had no intention of becoming
    a feminist icon.

    She was only trying to escape her abusive husband when she hit the
    road in 2020 in her white Volkswagen hatchback with a rooftop tent and
    her pension.

    "I felt like I could finally catch my breath," she says, recalling the
    moment she drove away from her old life. "I felt like I could survive
    and find a way of life that I wanted."

    Over the next four years and 180,000 miles, the video diaries she
    shared of her adventures, while detailing decades of pain, earned her
    millions of cheerleaders online. They called her the "road-tripping
    auntie" as she inadvertently turned into a hero for women who felt
    trapped in their own lives.

    Her story is now a hit film that was released in September - Like a
    Rolling Stone - and she made it to the BBC's list of 100 inspiring and influential women of 2024.

    Wives should not be naughty and talk back. They should be very supportive
    of their husbands. Wives talking back is a sign of a declining
    civilization.
