The Soviet period can not be called easy: in the history of the really dark pages. We experienced hunger, war, and repression — it was time. A lot of books, many have evidence. Some of this fiction, and some of the harsh and brutal truth.
In the camp were not only men — enemies of the people, but women as wives, mothers and daughters of these enemy. In fact, their fault was only that they were close relatives of unreliable elements, and hence their expected labor re-education. But besides this, they had to endure the pain and humiliation.
The system is "broke" its citizens — they had to be obedient and silent, and therefore the difficulties began upon arrival at a labor camp. Women were stripped naked and sent to bath, where he was subjected to a thorough
inspection: estimated as the product on the subject of cohabitation.
Forcing women to be wives was commonplace. In particular, Solovki female prisoners not only prepared the officers meals and cleaned the boots, but gratified on demand. Women were divided into three categories: "ruble", "Belorussiya" and "penny". It is clear that a healthy and beautiful included in the first category and enjoyed a special demand.
Rumor has it that there, on Solovki, every security officer had five concubines, and some organized harems. It is known that from among the prisoners have always selected a few dozen women who "served" the soldiers guarding the camp. And those insolent to such an extent that each time demanded new concubines.
Not all women were obedient, some tried to resist. The guards with them without further ADO: under various pretexts they were sent to solitary confinement, deprived of rations and warm clothes. If these simple methods did not bring due results, the prisoners could just starve or rape. Not every kept.
Solovki got a girl — polka seventeen, which had the misfortune to attract the attention of the plane. She had the courage to refuse his advances. One of the days in the female barracks included several drunken guards headed Toropov. He dragged the girl out of bed, and entered each in turn raped her...".

This punishment could only come up with a psychopath. It is known that women have more endurance than men, and therefore better tolerate difficult life and bullying. Violence they were subjected by children, and in the eyes of the mothers. Some of it is shocking to such an extent that they went mad. It is worth saying that at times did not maintain themselves the watchmen...
Execution. Women were sentenced to capital punishment in exactly the same way as men, enemies of the people."Bid her to follow along, and he with a revolver in his hand for her.

Now, many are exploiting the facts to their advantage, coming up with new myths, poke involved. We can only hope that the system will not give such failures and people will not suffer from the errors of those who run the state machine.
