"يجب أن تقاوم القدرة على الحكم الذاتي والعزم على حماية حرياتهم الخاصة الاغتصابات وكذلك تجنب ارتكابها"

Simplified Meaning:
People need to be able to govern themselves and protect their freedoms. This means they should not only defend their rights from being taken away by others but also ensure they do not take away others' rights. For example, in a classroom, students have the freedom to speak and share their ideas. However, they also need to make sure they are allowing others to do the same and not interrupting or dominating the conversation. This way, everyone’s rights are respected, and the whole group learns to live and work together peacefully. In your own life, this advice can help by reminding you to stand up for your own rights while also being fair and respectful to the rights of those around you.
