Friend, instead of trying to understand that sick mentality , we should try to change it. Those women who drink and ask for one night stands are not meant to be raped .period.
Same goes for even professional prostitutes as Safriz said. Women should be allowed to drink and ask guys out just like men are. this is what equality means.
Tell me this , in this country so many little girls and old women are raped , what is their fault ? They don't drink or wear short clothes. The problem is with the sick mentality of rapists. They are completely to be blamed for this and not any rich or poor girls.
I don't see any condescension in my post. I am surprised you think this way being an educated man , and i stand by that.
There lies the difference between you and me. You don't want to identify the root of the problem and you want to find the solution. Why there is sudden rise in rape cases in Delhi. ever thought about it. Understand the social dynamics. A girl who drinks and involve in pre-martial sex is a cultural shock to these new urban males. They haven't seen this behavior earlier in the life.This new cultural change their perception about the woman. They starts to objectify them and start taking them as a material to use and throw as they get convinced that these girls lack character.
Whereas these girls are equally cultured and have more responsible behavior in relationship.
Let me cite an example, In US, girls and women are often in bikinis on beaches and in swimming pools. The guys from their childhood have seen it as a part of their culture. For them its a normal behavior. But send a rural person from India and see his reaction. He will be ogling each and every girl out there. Now you will think I should beat this guy if he teases a girl or attacks a woman or try to rape her. How many will you beat. You have to think about the general psychology of each and every person from conservative background, their change in behavior and their reaction to new environment.
Here comes sex education, media and family values. Here comes proper supervision, strict laws and responsible behavior and code of conduct.
Problem with you and other guys out there protesting is that they don't understand what has changed this new generation to act in such a way that instead of being more civilized, they are turning into animals.
What is going in adolescent's mind and what he is exposed to. How much guidance and who is he following as a role model ?
I can explain you each and every characteristic of any guy in today's India. Just name it. Alcohol consumption, drugs, smoke, prostitute hiring, anything.
You are thinking emotionally. You have to see the transformation of one gender and relative transformation of psyche of today's population. Even if you wear jeans, drink alcohol or anything so called modern, you still touch your parent's feet.
if there is lack of catching up and adjustment, social differences get created and crime increases.
So buddy, again, read more about crime and criminal psychology, read some social science journals, talk to some social workers. Don't just last out getting emotional.
Most of the social workers say that their problem is not only the govt. but also these so called one time protestors and emotional people. They do more harm than good. They have practical solutions which I have shared about Gurgaon case which resulted in instant beefing up of security by the govt. and by the shops.
Think rationaly and find practical solution. Its easy to say you have to change the mindset of the people. But when it comes to How ? You have no answer. Its easy to say, respect woman, blah blah blah. But how you systematically implement it so that it changes the decision making and psychology of the young population, is whole different game.
There you will fail and we will have to deal with your emotional outbursts and to implement necessary measures to avoid you from creating the mess. I am telling you all this from my experience with actual social workers.
